APPROACH TO OVARIAN MASSES
MANAGEMENT OF BENIGN
OVARIAN MASS
DR SUNITA SUDHIR
PROFESSOR OBG
OVERVIEW
• Introduction
• Pelvic masses
• Adnexal masess
• Steps to evaluate
• Ultrasound evaluation, IOTA
• Risk assessment
• Tumour markers
• RMI, ROMA, ROCA, OV1 panel
PELVIC MASSES
NON GYNAECOLOGICAL
CAUSES
• PREGNANCY
• FULL BLADDER
• ENCYSTED ASCITIS
• DIVERTICULITIS
• APPENDICULAR ABCESS
• MESENTERIC CYST
• CAECUM AND COLON
TUMOURS
• RETROPERITONEAL
TUMOURS
GYNAECOLOGICAL CAUSES
• OVARIAN TUMOURS
• TUBOOVARIAN ABCESS
• PARAOVARIAN CYSTS
• FIBROIDS
• PYOMETRA
• PELVIC HAEMATOCELE
Ovarian masses
OVARIAN
CYSTS
NON
NEOPLASTIC
NEOPLASTIC
NON NEOPLASTIC
FUNCTIONAL CYSTS
• Related –temporary hormonal disturbances
• Size not more than 5-8cm
• Unilocular
• Contain clear fluid
• Usually asymptomatic
• Regress spontaneosly
FOLLICULAR CYSTS
• Most common functional cysts
• Usually <5cm
• Single or multiple
• Usually asymptomatic
• Can undergo torsion,
haemmorage, rupture& present as
acute abdomen
• Spontaneous regression
Theca lutein cysts
• Usually bilateral
• Increase in hcg( GTD), Clomiphene
• Regress after treatment of GTD
• May present with pain and tenderness
Corpus luteal cysts
• Due to overactivity of corpus luteum
• May have ammenorhea and delayed cycles
• Rarely cysts may rupture and cause intra
peritoneal haemorrage- mimics ruptured
ectopic
• May be seen with pregnancy
• Spontaneous regression unless complicated
Steps to evaluate
• Is the mass ovarian in origin?
• Is it solid or cystic ?
• If cystic , is it benign , malignant or
intermediate ?
• If benign, what most likely it is ?
• Whether required follow up , or to go to next
modality ?
• Do patient have risk factor for malignancy ?
Diagnosis of adnexal mass
• Detailed history taking , family history of malignancies
• Risk factors for malignancies
• Physical examination –head to toe examination ,
lymphadenopathy , supraclavicular lymph nodes
• Abdomen examination
• Speculum and bimanual pelvic examination and when needed per rectal
examination
• Usg- may detect asymtomatic cysts
symptoms if complicated like torsion rupture infected
-Benign masses
-Malignant masses
Risk factors for ovarian malignancy
• Getting older
• Being overweight or obese
• Having children later or never having a term
pregnancy
• Taking hormone therapy after menopause
• Family history of ovarian cancer, breast cancer,
or colorectal cancer
• Using fertility treatment
• Having had breast cancer
• High fat diet
Familial
• Having a family cancer syndrome
Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome
(HBOC)
Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC)
Peutz-Jeghers syndrome
MUTYH-associated polyposis
Other genes associated with hereditary ovarian
cancer-
ATM, BRIP1, RAD51C, RAD51D, and PALB2
Decreased risk
• Diet
• Late menarche, early menopause
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding
• multiparity
• Birth control
• Removal of fallopian tubes
• Hysterectomy
REVIEW HISTORY , EXAMINATION
WHEN NEEDED
HISTORY
• Rapid increase in size
• Weightloss, appetite
EXAMINATION
• Cachexia, anaemia,
supraclavicular nodes,
breast lump, pleural
effusion, leg edema
• M features of mass, liver
enlarged
Bimanual
examination
• Pod- nodules,
mobility of mass
absent
• Rectovaginal –
presence of nodules
and deposits
• CA 125- Epithelial ovarian
cancer
• CEA- Mucinous ovarian cancer
• Hcg – Embryonal ca,
choriocarcinoma
• Inhibin a , Inhibin B- granulosa
cell tumour
• LDH- Dysgerminoma
• α Feto protein- yolk sac
tumour
• CA 125- Released in normal
ovarian and endometrial cells
also, but high values in
malignancy
• He4 is released in malignant
ovarian cells
• He4 and ca125 to gether increase
sensitivity and specificity
TUMOUR MARKERS
Role of Imaging
Asymptomatic
Ovarian cysts
Size < 5cm
in premenopausal
women
Size 5-8cm
Benign morphology
Normal ca 125
Size > 8cm
Suspicious of malignancy
Size > 5cm in post menopausal
Size < 5cm
Premenopausal
women
Functional cysts
Resolve within 3
months
Conservative mx
Size 5-8cm
Benign morphology
Normal ca 125
COC
3-6 mths
Follow up with usg
• Lifestyle
changes
regress
• May require
surgery
If
increase
in size
Benign masses
Depending on
• The type of tumor, size
• Age, parity, future fertility desire,
MANAGEMENT
• Conservative(if cyst<7cm,unilocular thin
walled,ca125-n - close follow up
• Cystectomy
• Oophorectomy or salpingo oophorectomy
• TAH-BSO
Size > 8cm
Suspicious of malignancy
Size > 5cm in post
menopausal
Further imaging and
surgical intervention
RISK OF MALIGNANCY INDEX (RMI)
RMI ≥ 250 SUSPICIOUS OF MALIGNANCY
International ovarian tumour
analysis
IOTA defined as a standardized technique for
preoperative classification of adnexal masses
• It is a glycoprotein associated with mullerian
epithelial tissues and elevated in 80% of epithelial
cancers
• Normal value is < 35u/ml
• Levels of > 200 favors malignancy
• Post menopausal women with adnexal mass and high
CA125 levels has 96% of positive predictive value
CA-125
ROMA
Risk Of Malignancy Algorithm
• Numerical score
- based on HE4(human epididymis protein 4),
- Ca125
- Menopausal status
interpreted in conjunction with clinical and imaging
methods
ROCA
Risk Of Ovarian Cancer Algorithem
Prepared on the slope of serial ca125 measurement
drawn at regular intervals
Ova1 panel
• Measurements of 5 biomarkers in serum
Transthyretin
Apo lipoprotein
A-1
Transferrin
β2
Microglobulin
CA125
OVA 1
PANEL
SCORE OF > 5 IN
PREMENOPAUSAL
SCORE OF >4.4 IN
POSTMENOPAUSAL
PROBABLITY OF
MALIGNANCY
BORDERLINE OVARIAN TUMOUR
• Intermediate between benign cystic & frank invasive carcinoma
• 5-10% of epithelial OV CA
• Lot of dilemma of diagnosis & Mx
• Histological criteria: nuclear atypia,epithelial stratification, cellular
pleomorphism, mitotic activity or microscopic papillary
projections(atleast 2)
• No stromal invasion like invasive cancer, microinvasion may be less
3mm
• Mx: young age fertility sparing uso
or TAH BSO
SURFACE EPITHELIAL TUMOURS
1.SEROUS CYST ADENOMA
• Arises from surface epithelium
• Constitutes 40% of ovarian tumours
• Bilateral in 40% ofcases
• Risk of malignancy in 40% of cases
• Wall is smooth, shiny and greyish white
• Usually uniloculated , may be multiloculated
• Content fluid is clear & rich in serum protiens
Mucinous cystadenoma
• Arises from surface epithelium
• Accounts for 20 -25% of all tumours
• 10% of cases it is bilateral
• Risk of malignancy is 10%
• May enlarge to huge size
• The cyst is multiloculated and cut section shows
honey comb pattern
• Contents are thick viscid and mucinous
• Rupture can result in
Germ cell tumours
Dermoid cyst
• Arise from germ cells of ovary
• Most common 95% of germ cell tumours&
bilateral in 15-20% of cases
• Risk of malignancy 1-2%(SCC)
• Most common ovarian tumour in pregnancy
• It consists structures of all germ layers,
predominantly sebaceous
• Torsion is most likely complication
CHANGE IS THE ONLY CONSTANT
THING ,KEEP UPDATING YOURSELF
