Name 3 functions of the ovary

1. mature oocytes for ovulation


2. synthesize androgens and convert them to estrogens


3. produce progesterone after ovulation to sustain early pregnancy.

Name 4 functional cyst

1. Follicular


2. Corpus Luteum


3. Hemorrhagic


4. Theca-Lutein Cysts

What is the formula for calculating ovarian volume?

Length x Width x Height x 0.523

Would an ovarian volume of 10cc be considered abnormal for a postmenopausal patient?

Yes, above 8cc is considered abnormal

While performing an exam on a 28 year old patient, you note the ovarian volume of the right ovary is 11cc and the volume of the left ovary is 18cc.


Is this considered abnormal?

No, the volume of more than TWICE that of opposite side is considered abnormal.

Which of the functional cysts appears simple?

Follicular

Which of the functional cysts are most likely to be unilateral? Bilateral?

Unilateral: Follicular, corpus luteal, hemorrhagic




Bilateral: Theca-lutein

Which of the functional cysts is most likely to mimic a solid lesion?

Hemorrhagic

What hormone is secreted by theca-lutein cysts?

None

Sonographic and clinical follow up is recommended for cysts measuring greater than _______.

3 cm

What syndrome is the result of an iatrogenic complication?

Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

What 2 hormones are imbalanced in PCOS?

LH and FSH

T or F: Diffuse endometriosis is easily detected on ultrasound?

False

What measurements are used a guidelines for mild vs. severe ovarian stimulation?

Mild: < 5 cm


Severe: > 10 cm

What is PCOS?

- Chronic an ovulation


- Several follicles begin development but do not ovulate due to hormone imbalance. `

What is your conclusion of this image?



What is your conclusion of this image?

Severe form of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

What clinical findings is this patient likely to have?

What clinical findings is this patient likely to have?

1. Amenorrhea


2. Obesity


3. Infertility


4. Hirsutism

Differentiate endometriosis from adenomyosis:

Endometriosis: Ectopic tissue can be found almost anywhere in the pelvis, including ovary, fallopian tube, broad ligament, external surface of uterus, scattered over peritoneum, cul-de-sac, and bladder.




Adenomyosis: endometrial tissue invades and implants within myometrium.

What is an ovarian torsion?

A partial or complete rotation of ovarian pedicle on its axis, compromising lymphatic and venous drainage.

What are characteristics of a complex mass?

- Any simple cyst that hemorrhages as it involutes may appear as a complex mass.

What are characteristics of a solid mass?

- More monographically complex


- The tumor is more likely to be malignant (especially if associated with ascites)

What type of patients are affected by complex masses?

Patients of reproductive age

What type of patients are typically affected by solid masses?

1. Patients during peak fertile years (Only 1 in 15 are malignant)


- The ratio becomes 1 in 3 after age 40.



Considerations for complex masses:


1. ectopic pregnancy


2. Endometriosis


3. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease


4. Dermoids/Benign tumors

Considerations for solid masses:

1. connection with uterus to differentiate ovarian lesion from pedunculated fibroid.


2. color doppler can determine between mass and uterus

More likely to be benign or malignant?


Unilocular vs. Multilocular

unilocular = Benign

Multilocular = Malignant



Benign or Malignant? Thick or Thin septations

Thin = Benign


Thick = Malignant

Benign or Malignant? Enlarged Echogenic Ovaries

Malignant

Benign or Malignant? Well defined anechoic lesions

Benign

Benign or Malignant? Any change in ovarian echogenicity or volume of more than 20 ml.

Malignant

Benign or Malignant? Masses > 10 cm

Malignant

Benign or Malignant? Extension beyond ovary into omentum or peritoneum and liver metastases

Malignant

Benign or Malignant? Lesions with irregular walls

Malignant

Benign or Malignant? Wall or septal thickness > 3 mm

Malignant

Benign or Malignant? Masses < 5 cm
