TOAs are present in 14-38% of patients hospitalized with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). [emedicine.medscape.com]

The present case must be differentiated from massive edema of the ovary and sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary. Immunohistochemistry was not helpful in distinguishing them. The age of the patient and careful histologic observation are important. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

When ovarian tumors are present and don’t go away, when they are painful, and when they grow, they are usually treated with surgery, such as laparoscopy to remove the tumor. [cancer.coloradowomenshealth.com]

    In contrast, there is a plethora of CGH and allelotyping data implicating many genomic regions in ovarian epithelial tumours. [atlasgeneticsoncology.org]

    Thus, endometriosis may result in bowel-related symptoms (eg, tenesmus) and urinary tract symptoms. Physical findings associated with endometriosis are variable and are dependent on the severity and location of the disease. [emedicine.medscape.com]

    Polycystic ovaries (multiple small cysts, often around the periphery of the ovary—the classic “string of pearls” appearance) Signs of androgen excess (eg, acne, hirsutism, temporal balding, male pattern hair loss, or clitoromegaly) Menstrual irregularities (oligomenorrhea [emedicine.medscape.com]

  • Adnexal Tenderness

    Usually there is an appropriate history of fever, elevated white blood cell count, and adnexal tenderness, which will indicate such a process. Hydrosalpinx or pyosalpinx often accompany these cases. [appliedradiology.com]

    The traditional criteria for the diagnosis of PID include subjective bilateral abdominal pain per patient report and positive physical examination findings for bilateral adnexal tenderness to palpation and cervical motion tenderness. [emedicine.medscape.com]

  • Abdominal Pain with Urination

    In these cases symptoms may include: Abdominal pain Trouble urinating or frequent urination Low back pain Pain with sexual intercourse Bad cramps with a woman’s periods Feeling full quickly after eating, or no appetite Nausea or vomiting. [cancer.coloradowomenshealth.com]

The initial laboratory workup revealed anemia (hemoglobin was 10.4 g/dl). Cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) was measured 64.37 IU/ml (normal range 35 IU/ml). Grey scale transvaginal ultrasonography scan showed a solid mass arising from the left ovary. [doczz.biz.tr]

Case Report An 80-year-old woman with abdominal distention was admitted to our hospital for a workup for her abdominal masses, which had been detected on MRI. She had no history of malignancy. [casereports.in]

Ovarian tumor removal and treatment In some cases, benign tumors need no treatment; doctors may simply use “watchful waiting” to make sure they cause no problems. [cancer.coloradowomenshealth.com]

Treatment Generally, no treatment is required, and many of these cysts resolve spontaneously within 6-12 weeks. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Since the surgery remains the primary treatment for ovarian carcinoma, there are only a few reports describing the effects of radiation and chemotherapy treatment on histology of ovarian tumors (2,3,6,7). [jcancer.org]

Conservative surgery is the treatment of choice in young women. Radical treatment is reserved for patients in perimenopause or postmenopausal period. [ijisr.issr-journals.org]

T1: typically shows homogeneous low signal intensity T2 lesions show predominantly homogeneous low signal intensity (from fibrous components) scattered high signal areas may be present representing areas of cystic degeneration /- edema Treatment and prognosis [radiopaedia.org]

Radical surgical excision is the preferred treatment for postmenopausal women and is associated with a good prognosis. Conflict of interest statement The authors declare no conflicts of interest. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In this case this etiology was unlikely because of low estradiol and AMH levels. Surgical exploration revealed a 10 cm mass of the left ovary proven histologically to be an ovarian fibrothecoma (OFT). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology Thecoma-fibroma tumors are a closely related group of benign tumors that arise from ovarian stroma and are often difficult for the imager and even pathologist to distinguish. [clinicalgate.com]

Origin of pleural effusion The etiology of pleural effusion is unclear. Efskind and Terada et al theorize that ascitic fluid is transferred via transdiaphragmatic lymphatic channels. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Can I prevent ovarian cysts? No, you cannot prevent functional ovarian cysts if you are ovulating. If you get ovarian cysts often, your doctor may prescribe hormonal birth control to stop you from ovulating. [womenshealth.gov]
