Essential Aspects in Ensuring the Efficient Management of Ovarian Tumors in Children in Case of an Acute or Chronic Setting

Highlights

  • Nu există corelaţie între prezentarea clinică a pacientelor şi tipul tumorii ovariene care o cauzează

  • Another aspect is that certain types of surgical treatment are best avoided in case of suspicion of borderline or malignant tumors, so the findings in ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are fundamental in obtaining a suggestive description which will subsequently guide the management of that patient

Summary

Introduction

Nu există corelaţie între prezentarea clinică a pacientelor şi tipul tumorii ovariene care o cauzează. This study is attempting to emphasize the main differences between the imagistic features of the ovarian tumors compared to the ones discovered intraoperatively, as well as the associated conditions which could prevent getting a proper preoperative diagnosis. Another aspect is that certain types of surgical treatment are best avoided in case of suspicion of borderline or malignant tumors, so the findings in ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are fundamental in obtaining a suggestive description which will subsequently guide the management of that patient. This study is analyzing the hospital’s experience in order to enhance the medical assistance of these patients
