Histopathologic spectrum of cystic ovarian masses

Abstract: Ovarian cysts can be non-neoplastic or neoplastic. There are several histopathologic diagnoses under both the rubrics. This research was a cross sectional analytic observational histopathological study of cystic ovarian lesions carried out over three years from March, 2012 to February, 2015 at Chitwan Medical College Teaching Hospital in Nepal.

“…Similar age incidence was also found in ovarian lesions study by Maharjanet al 24 Only 10% of adnexal masses were found to be bilateral. The finding is comparable to study of Pradhaet al 25 and Ranabhat et al 26 There was no significant difference in prevalence of masses in right or left ovary in this study. However, higher prevalence of masses in the right ovary compared to left ovary was found in a study by Bagdeet al 27 and higher prevalence was found in the left ovary by Kaldha et al 28 Adnexal abnormalities in pediatric patient though not common are not rare.…”

“…The most common neoplastic cysts encountered was mature cystic teratoma (17 cases of 100) followed by serous cystadenoma (12 cases out of 100). This finding was in concordance with the study of Ranabhat et al who reported 29 mature cystic teratoma out of 114 cases followed by 19 serous cystadenoma out of 114 and the study of kanasagara et al (14 mature cystic teratoma out of 100 followed by 10 serous cystadenoma out of 100) [3], [34]. However, the result of the study by Arab et al [35] found that serous cystadenoma was the most common neoplastic cysts (13%) followed by Mature cystic teratoma (10%) [35].…”
