摘　　要：BACKGROUND We report on the case of a 21-year-old female who could not walk due to a huge Bartholin's cyst occupying the right vulvar region.The patient was treated by marsupialization of the Bartholin’s cyst and postoperative antibiotic therapy.CASE SUMMARY A 21-year-old female without a medical history of sexually transmitted diseases presented to our outpatient clinic with complaints of a painful vulvar lump and a green-yellowish discharge for 4 d.A large Bartholin’s cyst,10 cm in diameter,was suspected over the right side of the vulva.She was advised to be admitted to the ward for intravenous antibiotic treatment and to perform marsupialization several days later.However,the patient requested immediate surgery because of time limitations.The patient underwent marsupialization under local anesthesia.The procedure was well-tolerated.After making the incision,a significant amount of malodorous pus(approximately 30 mL)was removed from the abscess.The patient was followed up for 1 wk postoperatively.The Bartholin’s cyst regressed,and the surgical wound healed well.CONCLUSION Our case shows that an initial marsupialization followed by oral antibiotic therapy can be an appropriate treatment option for a large Bartholin’s cyst.However,depending on the patient’s condition,a suitable treatment,either cystectomy or marsupialization,can be considered.
