Ovarian Tumours: Discordance between Clinical and Radiological Findings: A Case Series.

Abstract

The five major types of ovarian tumors in females of different age groups are discussed here with respect to discordance between ultrasonography, clinical features and histopathology findings. The importance of clinical examination cannot be denied in such cases as total dependence on investigation modalities may lead to wrong diagnosis and treatment. Five such cases admitted in the year 2017-2018 at Era's Lucknow medical college and hospital were selected for this series. All the cases had varied presentation, and diagnosis in each case was difficult as the nature of the masses differed markedly from the radiological findings. Even in expert hands, a radiological conclusion must go hand in hand with a proper clinical correlation.
