So here's an idea for the medics and non-medics amoung you. Welcome to the first installation of the All Scrubbed Up "What is THAT" Competition. From time to time, we'll post something up that I've either removed during a surgery - or that we've happened on across the medical web. Your job? Tell us what it is!
WARNING: The following images may not be suitable for children under the age of 16 - and squirmish males.
CLUE: 42 year old woman presents with growing mass in her abdomen for three years.
