ABSTRACT
Gossypiboma [retained surgical sponge] is a rare occurrence and can occur after any surgical procedure, which requires the use of internal swabs. We present a case of 40 years old female who underwent laparotomy for hysterectomy. This case is presented to highlight the fact that this condition should always be included in the differential diagnosis of patients who have had previous surgery and vague symptoms
