We described a case of orbital schwannoma in a patient undergoing oncological follow-up for 5 years for infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast. Patient treated with complete surgical resection of the tumor without the need for any adjuvant treatment.
The term "uterine attachment" refers to structures anatomically close to the uterus, including fallopian tubes, ovaries, adjacent vessels, ligaments and connective tissues (3). Therefore, when there is the appearance of an anexal mass, it is certainly related to tumor originating from the uterine attachments. That said, it is worth remembering that during pregnancy, these tumors are uncommon, presenting a variation in the incidence of only 1 to 10% of the pregnant population (2) and most of these anexal masses are functional ovarian cysts that usually disappear during pregnancy, preserving at only 0.7% 1.7% of cases. (13) From this perspective, the present study has the objective of reporting a rare case of pregnant women with anexal mass, being in the right ovary that evolved to an atypical torsional picture and then reviewing information about the subject, focusing on the challenge of surgical treatment.
The term "uterine annex" refers to structures anatomically close to the uterus, including fallopian tubes, ovaries, adjacent vessels, ligaments and connective tissues(3) . Therefore, when there is the appearance of an adnexal mass, it is certainly related to tumor originating from the uterine appendages. That said, it is worth remembering that during pregnancy, these tumors are uncommon, with a variation in incidence of only 1 to 10% of the pregnant population(2) and most of these adnexal masses are functional ovarian cysts that usually disappear during pregnancy, being preserved in only 0.7% to 1.7% of cases. (13) Sob esse prisma, o presente trabalho possui o objetivo de relatar um caso raro de gestante com massa anexial, sendo em ovário direito que evoluiu a um quadro atípico de torção e depois revisar informações acerca do tema, focando no desafio do tratamento cirúrgico.
