Shim, Shin, Lee, and Lee: Ultrasonographic findings of cystic mass of ovary

Abstract

The sonographic findings of histologically proven 160 cystic masses of ovary were analized to find helpful diagnostic sign. The results were as follows: 1. The bilateralities were identified in 1 serouscystadenocarcinoma(33%), 2 mucinous cystadenocarcinoms(40%), & 2 dermoid cysts(5%). 2. 76% of serous cystadenoma were homogenous cystic masses. 3. 64% of mucinous cystadenoma wre cystic masses with internal septatio (7 daughtercysts), & 5 mucinous cystadenomas were showed multiple homogenous low level echoes within it. 4. 64% of dermoidcyst revealed strong echogenic solid component within the upper part of the cyst. 5. 80% of corpus luteal cystwere mainly cystic lesion with several low-level internal echoes. 6. 80% of malignant ovarian mass revealedirregular, thick internal septations & irregualr inhomogenous internal solid components within it.
