Benign Ovarian Tumors

Background: Benign ovarian tumors are a common reason for consultation and intervention in gynecology. The objective of this was to describe the clinical, ultrasonographic, histological and therapeutic aspects of benign ovarian tumors in the department.Methods: This is a retrospective and descriptive study of three years and six months from January 1, 2016, to June 30, 2019, which focused on the records of women-operated during this period of benign ovarian tumors.Results: The incidence of benign ovarian tumors was 12.58%. The circumstances of discovery were dominated by disorders of the menstrual cycle (35.05%) followed by infertility (20.78%), the sensation of a pelvic mass (19.48%), and pelvic pain. (15.58%). The ultrasound report was in favor of a serous cyst in 74% of cases, a mucoid cyst in 14% of cases, a 9% dermoid cyst, and a 3% endometriotic cyst. Histology revealed serous cystadenoma in 54% of cases, mucinous cystadenoma in 13% of cases, mature poly tissue teratoma in 7% of cases, and endometrial cyst in 3% of cases. Cystectomy was the most performed surgical procedure (71%).Conclusions: Benign ovarian tumors are common in our practice. The most common histological forms were serous and mucinous cystadenomas. Conservative treatment has been practiced in the majority of cases.

Background: Epithelial tumors are the most common subgroup and are seen in 60-70% of all ovarian tumors. Serous cystadenoma and mucinous cystadenoma are the most common benign epithelial tumors. Serous cystadenomas are ovarian tumors with the highest bilateral incidence. The coexistence of tumors with different histopathology in the ovaries is extremely rare and has only been reported in a few cases in the literature. We present a case of bilateral ovarian tumor that was diagnosed as serous and mucinous cystadenoma after laparoscopic surgery. Case report: A 45-year-old female patient was admitted to our center with swelling in the pelvic region and pain in the left lumbar region. US imaging showed a cystic lesion in the right adnexal area, 4x2cm in size, well-circumscribed, containing a few thin septa, and a low echo fluid content. A cystic lesion with 6x4cm sized multilocular, well-circumscribed, slightly high echo fluid content was observed in the left adnexal area. On CT, a complex cystic lesion measuring 6x4cm was observed in the left adnexal area, pushing the left ureter laterally and causing the hydroureter. In addition, a 4x2cm cystic lesion was observed in the right adnexal area and hydroureter was observed on the right side proximal to this lesion. Both lesions were removed by surgery. On histopathologic examination, the left-sided cystic lesion was diagnosed as mucinous cystadenoma, and the right-sided cystic lesion was diagnosed as serous cystadenoma. Conclusion: The coexistence of different ovarian tumor subtypes is rare. In this article, we presented a case in which serous and mucinous cystadenoma lesions were seen together for the fourth time in the literature, according to our knowledge.

Cystadenomas of the pancreas are rare single and isolated tumors, usually appearing in young and middle aged women. Thecomas are rare usually unilateral, benign, estradiol, much rarer androgens producing ovarian tumors. We present a 19 year old girl in whom we removed two mucinous cystadenomas of the tail of the pancreas, 7 and 2 cm in diameter as well as a thecoma of the right ovary. As far as we know this combination of tumors have not been reported before.

Background: Ovarian tumors are one of the most common tumors, which occur in female genital tract. Despite the newer techniques in imaging and molecular biology, the diagnosis of ovarian tumors primarily depends on histopathological examination. Ovarian tumors manifests a wide spectrum of clinical, morphological and histological features. The aim of the study was to find the incidence of surface epithelial ovarian tumors in a tertiary referral centre. Materials and methods: A retrospective data of 3 years were collected for surface epithelial ovarian tumors submitted to the pathology department of the tertiary care hospital and analysed. The correlation of these surface epithelial ovarian tumors was done with age, clinical presentation and histomorphological patterns. Non-neoplastic lesions like simple ovarian cysts, tubo-ovarian mass and polycystic ovaries were excluded. Results: A total number of 56 cases were studied. Out of which 44 cases were benign and 12 cases were malignant. Maximum cases were observed between 21 to 30 years. Mass per abdomen was the most common presentation(36%) followed by mass and pain in abdomen(27%).Serous cystadenoma formed maximum 28 cases(50%) followed by Mucinous cystadenoma(16 cases) 28 % , Serous cysadenocarcinoma formed 5cases (9%), followed by Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma 3 cases(5%) & 2 cases each(4%) of clear cell carcinoma and endometrioid carcinoma were noted. The most common histopathological type of benign and malignant tumor was serous cystadenoma (50.2%) and serous cystadenocarcinoma(9%) respectively. Conclusion: In the study majority (78.6%) of the surface epithelial ovarian tumors were benign. Malignancy was seen in (21.4)% of the cases. Surface epithelial tumours present a great challenge to the gynecologic oncologist because non-neoplastic ovarian lesions can form a pelvic mass and potentially mimic a neoplasm. Correct histopathological diagnosis of surface epithelial ovarian tumors is of prime importance in view of their behavioral predictability and clinical correlation for proper management of the patient.

Adnexal masses are frequently found in both symptomatic and asymptomatic women. The frequency of them is 7,8% in reproductive aged women and 2,5–18% in postmenopausal patients. Aim: to investigate clinical significance of the Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) and to compare it with histological findings in patients with adnexal masses. Patients and methods: 345 patients with adnexal masses were evaluated. Depending on the menopausal status, serum CA-125 level and ultrasonographic findings RMI scores were calculated for each of patients. Results: according to RMI all the patients were divided in to two groups: first group — 283 (62%) of patients with RMI less then 200 and the second group — 52 (38%) women with RMI more then 200. The patients of the second group were referred to the oncologist. Among the patients with RMI 200, 137 (48,4%) endometriomas, 73 (25,8%) serous cystadenoma, 45 (15,9%) dermoid cysts, 22 (7,8%) paraovarian cysts, 2 (0,7%) adenocarcinoma were detected after histological examination. In patients with RMI 200, 25% of benign ovarian tumors, 34,6% of borderline and 40,4% of malignant tumors were verified. Conclusions: RMI when used in the presence of a pelvic mass is a useful triage tool to determine those women who should be referred to a gynaecological oncologist. During laparoscopy, in cases of intraoperative malignancy suspicion staging should be performed: videorecord of the surgery, biopsy of the adnexal mass and contralateral ovary, biopsy of the omentum and peritoneum, and aspiration of the peritoneal fluid for cytological examination.

Mucinous Cystadenomas

Cystic neoplasms of the pancreas are rare and their diagnosis and treatment can be difficult. This report details 7 patients who had histologically proven serous cystadenoma4, mucinous cystadenoma2 and cystadeno carcinoma1. Computed tomography and sonography allowed excellent preoperative assessment but to attempt a distinction between the histological variants may be hazardous. Two tumours were only autopsy findings and 5 patients underwent laparotomy. It is confirmed that potentially malignant mucinous cystadenomas and cytadenocarcinomas should be resected whenever possible; serous cystadenomas are always benign and should therefore be resected only when the diagnosis is doubtful or if they cause symptoms.

Abstract Background Texture analysis of medical images has been reported to be a reliable method for differential diagnosis of neoplasms. This study was to investigate the performance of textural features and the combined performance of textural features and morphological characteristics in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic serous and mucinous cystadenomas. Methods. We retrospectively reviewed 59 patients with pancreatic serous cystadenoma and 32 patients with pancreatic mucinous cystadenoma at our hospital. A three-dimensional region of interest (ROI) around the margin of the lesion was drawn manually in the CT images of each patient, and textural parameters were retrieved from the ROI. Textural features were extracted using the LifeX software. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) method was applied to select the textural features. The differential diagnostic capabilities of morphological features, textural features, and their combination were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used as the main indicator. Diagnostic accuracy based on the AUC values is defined as follows: 0.9–1.0, excellent; 0.8–0.9, good; 0.7–0.8, moderate; 0.6–0.7, fair; 0.5–0.6, poor. Results. In the differential diagnosis of pancreatic serous and mucinous cystadenomas, the combination of morphological characteristics and textural features (AUC 0.893, 95% CI 0.816-0.970) is better than morphological characteristics (AUC 0.783, 95% CI 0.665-0.900) or textural features (AUC 0.777, 95% CI 0.673-0.880) alone. Conclusions. In conclusion, our preliminary results highlighted the potential of CT texture analysis in discriminating pancreatic serous cystadenoma from mucinous cystadenoma. Furthermore, the combination of morphological characteristics and textural features can significantly improve the diagnostic performance, which may provide a reliable method to select patients with indication for surgical intervention in consideration of the different treatment principles of the two diseases.

Background: The prevalance of ovarian tumors is around 1-3%. The accurate diagnosis and appropriate management of ovarian tumors is a real challenge to gynaecologists. The aim of the study was to analyse the risk factors, clinical presentation, surgical procedure and histopathological report in patients with surgically managed ovarian tumours.Methods: We conducted a retrospective study by collecting the data of patients operated in the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Chettinad Hospital and Research Institute, Kelambakkam. A total of 118 case records were studied.Results: 20.3% were nulliparous. 79.7% were multiparous. 10.2% were <20 years, 47.2% were 20-40 years, 39.2% were 40-60 years, 3.4% were >60 years. 72.9% were premenopausal. 27.1% were postmenopausal. 25.4% presented with acute abdominal pain, 11.9% with mass abdomen, 30.5% with chronic pain abdomen and 32.2% were incidentally diagnosed. 20.4% underwent ovarian cystectomy, 18.6% ovariotomy, 30.5% salpingoophorectomy and 30.5% total abdominal hystrectomy with bilateral salpingoophorectomy. Most common histopathology report was simple cyst in 44.%. 31.3% had serous cystadenoma, 9.3% had mucinous cystadenoma, 9.3% had teratoma, 2.5% had brenner tumour, 1.7% borderline tumours and 1.7% malignancy (Serous cystadenocarcinoma).Conclusions: Elective surgical management of ovarian tumours is better option for reducing emergency laparotomies for torsion and rupture and also for obtaining a conclusive histopathological diagnosis in suspicious cases. The choice between laparoscopy and laparotomy should made after making appropriate preoperative evaluation.

Surface epithelial tumors account for more than 90% of ovarian tumors, of which serous tumors comprise 46%. Sex-cord stromal tumors constitute 8% of ovarian tumors, fibroma being the commonest, comprising 70% in this category. Combination of different types of tumors can occur in ovary with most common being Mucinous cystadenoma and Brenner tumour. We report a case of a very rare combination of ovarian tumour-Fibroma with Serous cystadenoma of the ovary. This combination is not mentioned in any standard textbooks or reference books of gynaecologic pathology. Extensive search of the English Literature showed only one reported case with this combination of ovarian tumors. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second case to be reported in English Literature.
