Abstract

Introduction: MATURE TERATOMA is the most common germ cell tumor (and the most common tumor) of the OVARY, composing more than 20% of all ovarian neoplasms. Super INFECTION of dermoid ovarian cyst is very rare.Case Report: A 72 year-old woman was admitted to the gynecological outpatient clinic because of lower abdominal pain and fever. Gynecological examination and ultrasonography revealed a heterogeneous cystic mass in the right OVARY.Abdominopelvic CT scan revealed a right ovarian mass (15x15 cm) thought to be a DERMOID CYST. Right adnexectomy was performed.The pathological evaluation suggested infected benign ovarian dermoid.Conclusion: They are the most common ovarian neoplasm found in adolescence and during pregnancy. MATURE cystic TERATOMA may be complicated by torsion, rupture, and malignant change INFECTION of a MATURE TERATOMA is a relatively uncommon event. However, based on our case and other cases, super INFECTION with abscess formation should be considered in the differential diagnosis whenever a patient with a documented pelvic mass and fever refers to gynecologists.
