Introduction
3
high gonadotropin Theca-lutein cysts (ovulation induction) (hydatidiform mole) (invasive mole) (choriocarcinoma)
PathogenesisFunctional Ovarian Tumors
ovarian follicle follicular cyst
corpus luteum lutein cyst

lutein cyst:
Clinical Features
Functional Ovarian Tumors
asymptomatic,unilocular, < 6 cm in diameter,regress
ovarian follicle cyst:
more firm / solid , delay period
undergo torsion: pain, tenderness and rebound ten-derness, moderate leukocytosis.
rupture: pain, tenderness, hemoperitoneum.
Theca-lutein cyst: high gonadotropin level, bilateral (10-15 cm) , regress
5
Diagnosis
Functional Ovarian Tumors
Presumptive Diagnosis: 4 to 8 cm cystic adnexal mass is noted on bimanual examination mobile, unilateral, no ascites, < 8 cmConfirmed Diagnosis: regresses
ovarian follicle cyst: in the middle of the menstruationlutein cyst: before the upcoming period
Ultrasound Study: confirm the cystic nature of the mass, cannot excludes neoplastic tumor
delayed menses / abnormal uterine bleeding / abdominal pain differentiate with ectopic pregnancy, salpingo-oophoritis, or torsion of a neoplastic cyst.

painful, multilocular / Surgical Explorationpartially solid
Management
Functional Ovarian Tumors
child-bearing, <6 cm Reexamination (oral contraceptive)
6 cm to 8 cm / fixed / Ultrasound study feels solid
> 40 years Observation not recommanded
7
Management
Functional Ovarian Tumors
Surgical Exploration:
Laparoscopy Laparotomy
ovarian cystectomy
Laparoscopic inspection may not be helpful in differentiating between a functional and a neoplastic ovarian cyst.
An aspiration of a unilocular cyst and cytologic examination of the fluid may be misleading, and slow leakage of the fluid will disseminate cancer quite rapidly if the cyst is malignant.

Epithelial Ovarian Neoplasms
mesothelial cells
cervical epithelium
endometrium ciliated endosalpinx
serousmucinous endometrioid
9
•Serous : 10% bilateral, 70% benign, 5-10% borderline, 20-25% malignant
Epithelial Ovarian Neoplasms
Histologic Features:
•Mucinous: huge size, multilocular, 85% benign
•Brenner: solid benign

fibromas
granulosa-theca cell tumors
Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors
gynandroblastomas
Sex Cord-Stromal Ovarian Neoplasms
12
Sex Cord-Stromal Ovarian Neoplasms
Granulosatheca Cell Neoplasms : any age group feminizing effects
Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors : virilizing effects
Ovarian Fibroma: Meigs’ syndrome
13
Germ-Cell TumorsBenign Cystic Teratoma 15-20% bilateral all adult tissues
primarily of skin and the dermal appendagessweat and sebaceous glands
hair follicles
Other tissue components: mature brain,
bronchus, thyroid,
cartilage, bone.

Clinical Features: nonspecific
Diagnosis of Benign Ovarian TumorsSymptoms
most benign ovarian neoplasms are asymptomatic
Torsion: pain, nausea, vomiting Rupture:
16
Bimanual pelvic examination: adnexal mass
Signs and Investigations
Diagnosis of Benign Ovarian Tumors
Abdominal examination: lower abdominal mass peritoneal irritation
Pelvic Ultra-Sonography:
exclude malignancy Serum CA 125:
17
Confirmed Diagnosis of an Ovarian Neoplasm
Management of Ovarian Neoplasms
Definitive Treatment:
by surgical exploration and microscopic examination
the type of neoplasm
the patient's age
her desire for future child bearing
18
Epithelial ovarian neoplasms:
Management of Ovarian Neoplasms Epithelial ovarian neoplasms
young and nulliparous, unilocular, no excrescences
unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy
carefully inspect the contralateral
ovarian cystectomy
19
child-bearing women: salpingo-oophorectomy
Management of Ovarian Neoplasms Stromal-Cell Neoplasms
postmenopausal women:
hysterectomy & bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy
20
Management of Ovarian Neoplasms Germ-Cell Tumors
ovarian cystectomyunilateral salpingo-oophorectomy
carefully inspect the contralateral
Cystic teratomas
21
Benign Tumors of the Fallopian Tubes: inflammatory (hydrosalpinx or pyosalpinx) benign neoplasms of the oviducts
Benign Tumors of the Fallopian Tubes
difficult to differentiate on examination
definitive treatment: salpingectomy represents

Parovarian neoplasms
generally small
located within the broad ligament
derived from paramesonephric structures
