“…12 In a study done by Garg et al majority of the tumors were unilateral (95.3%). 9 In our study maximum number of ovarian tumors was noted in 21-30 years age group which concord with the study done by Pradhan et al 14 However, Garg et al, 9 and Jindal et al 26 observed that most common ovarian tumors were in 30-50 years age group.…”

“…Yogambal et al, 22 Yasmin et al, 23 and Hassani et al 20 found that the most common benign tumor was serous cyst adenoma which followed by mature cyst teratoma. Ahmed et al 24 and Pradhan et al 14 studies showed benign cystic teratoma was the commonest benign tumor.…”

“…13 Pradhan SB et al showed the incidence of benign ovarian tumors as 86.8 percent. 14 In Iranian studies the incidence of benign ovarian tumors lies between 67-69.77 percent. [15][16] In this study, we aimed to find prevalence and frequency of different histopathological patterns of ovarian lesions and their correlation with various parameters in Ahvaz Imam Khomeini Hospital.…”

Background: Ovarian cysts are common forms of gynecological problems that can be range from physiological cysts to highly aggressive neoplastic lesions. The purpose of this study was to investigate prevalence and frequency of different histopathological patterns of ovarian lesions and their correlation with various parameters in Ahvaz, Iran.Materials and Methods: This is the retrospective study of patients with the ovarian masses at Ahvaz Imam Khomeini Hospital from 2010 - 2015. The relevant clinical details about the patient were retrieved from hospital data. Clinical characteristics of patients such as patient's age, presenting signs and symptoms, histopathological diagnosis, mass type, mass subtype, size of cysts and ovary which is involved were noted. Results: Two hundred sixty seven specimens of ovarian tumor obtained for histopathological examination. Of these, 163(61.0%) were tumor like, 96(36.0%) were benign tumor and 8(3.0%) were malignant. The most common tumor like conditions was Corpus luteum cyst (43.4% cases), among benign and malignant tumors, mature cystic teratoma (17.2% of total) and Epithelial tumors (n=4) were most common. There is a statistically significant positive relation between age and various ovarian masses. (P= 0.002). Histopathological diagnosis wasn't correlated with ovarian involvement.Conclusion: Benign tumors are more common than malignant tumors in all age groups. Germ cell tumors followed by surface epithelial cell tumors are the commonest tumor. Mature cystic teratoma was the most common tumor. Unilaterality is more frequently seen in ovarian tumors and various tumors are seen in various age groups.

“…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.…”

Aims: To evaluate the computed tomographic scan features of benign and malignant adnexal masses. Methods: Retrospective descriptive study of CT scan features of adnexal masses were evaluated at Department of Radiology of Nobel Medical College from April to September 2020. Initial ultrasound or clinical diagnoses of adnexal masses were referred for the CT scan. Incidental adnexal findings on abdominal-pelvic CT scan performed for other diagnosis were also included.Descriptive parameters were calculated. Results: Total 46 cases were studied where mean age was 41.3 years with range 10-74 years. Most common age group with adnexal masses were in between 30 and 50 years (56.6%); 86% had benign features and rest were associated with either ascites (66%) or peritoneal deposits (13%). Complex cysts (60%) was the most common consistency with simple cyst (26%) followed by solid (6%). Amongst the benign neoplastic lesions most of them were dermoid cysts (35%). Conclusions: CT scan can be used as a supplementary diagnostic tool for cystic and solid componentcharacterization of adnexal masses and help in evaluation of the nature and extent of disease. Keywords: adnexal mass, computed tomography, simple cyst, complex cyst

“…Our finding is similar with various studies conducted in different parts of India and Nepal. [6][7][8][9][10][11] Only one case of metastatic tumour is encountered in this study while the rest comprises primary ovarian tumour (99%). Similar observation was seen in the study of Bhagyalakshmi A et al (98.5%).…”

BACKGROUND Worldwide, ovarian cancer is the sixth most common cancer in women and seventh most common cause of cancer death. For most western countries, ovarian cancer is the fifth most common cancer and ranks fourth in cancer mortality. For the western hemisphere it accounts for 4% of cancer in women and is the most frequent cause of death due to gynaecological cancer; whereas, in some European countries, and in parts of Eastern India, ovarian cancer is reported as the most frequent cause of death in women from gynaecological cancer. The present study was undertaken to analyse the histomorphological spectrum of ovarian tumours and their distribution in age groups in this region of the country.
