MACEDO, Carlos et al. Bartholin gland abscess: a common issue, a rare presentation. Acta Obstet Ginecol Port [online]. 2022, vol.16, n.4, pp.390-394.  Epub Dec 31, 2022. ISSN 1646-5830.

Bartholin’s gland cysts and abscesses are a common finding in a gynaecology outpatient clinic or emergency department, presenting usually with pain and a size less than four centimetres. We describe a rare case of a Bartholin gland abscess, because of its uncommon dimensions, almost 17 centimetres of maximum diameter.

Keywords : Bartholin’s Glands; Abscess; Gynecology.
