Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 51
Abstract
A 22 years old patient with 9 months of Amenorrhoea with a abdominal swelling was admitted to our institution with an Ultrasonography report of Bilateral ovarian mass (14.3x5.9cm in left ovary) and (9.5x7cm in right ovary) with internal vascularity with septations along with single live intrauterine fetus. She delivered by elective caesarean section in V/O breech presentation. Left side ovarian cystectomy done Right side ovarian puncture done. Histopathology showed left side– Mucinous cystadenoma. Right Side–Follicular cyst. Mucinous cystadenomas are benign epithelial ovarian tumors which tend to be unilateral, bilateral and multilocular with smooth surface and contain mucinous fluid, 75% of all mucinous tumors are benign, while 10% are borderline and 15% are invasive carcinomas. Benign mucinous tumors are most common in the third to fifth decades of life and may be 20-30 cms in size. The incidence of ovarian cysts during pregnancy is less than 5% and most of them are benign in nature. Giant cysts found in less than 1% of the cases of ovarian cysts with pregnancy.
