Ovarian Neoplasms
• Ovarian cancer is less common than either cervical
or endometrial cancer, but it is the leading cause
of death related to GYN malignancies because it
tends to be diagnosed at a more advanced stage
• 80% of ovarian tumors are benign
• 40% of tumors in postmenopausal women are
malignant

Question 1 - Is it ovarian or extra-ovarian in origin?
Approach to Adnexal Masses
“4 Questions”
1. Is it ovarian or extra-ovarian in origin?
Do not assume adnexal = ovarian
2. Is it one of the “Big 5”?
3. Does clinical situation suggest the
diagnosis?
4. Is it mostly cystic or solid?

Approach to Adnexal Masses
Ovarian
• Look for some ovarian
tissue
• Small follicles around it
Non-ovarian
• Separate from ovary
• Gentle pressure with
transducer and/or hand on
abdomen to show
separation

Question 2
Is it one of the “Big 5”
• Common, benign ovarian masses
• Account for the majority of masses seen in
most clinical practice
• Often have a typical appearance that
strongly suggest the diagnosis
• The “bread & butter” of ovarian masses

Follicular Cysts
• 4-5 days before
ovulation, the
dominate follicle
grows at a rate of 2-3
mm/day to reach the
maximum diameter
• Cumulus oophorus
may be seen 24 hrs
before ovulation

Corpus Luteum Cyst
• The CL of menstruation

slowly
• The CL of pregnancy
reaches maximum size
approximately 8-10 weeks
after ovulation and begins
to decrease significantly in
size between 12-16 weeks

• Recognize that one can miss subtle nodularity when
cyst is large
• Image cyst wall well – Do TVUS

• Women age group 15-30 years
• Round rather than ellipsoidal in shape
• Bilaterally enlarged ovaries
– > 12 peripheral cysts – 2-9 mm diameter – (volume > 10cc) • An imbalance of LH & FSH results in abnormal estrogen

• Diagnosis is usually made biochemically
