What symptom did teratoma break to have?

summary

Ovarian teratoma is a common ovarian germ cell tumor. Most of them are women of childbearing age. It accounts for about 15% of the total number of primary ovarian tumors, of which 95% - 98% are benign mature teratomas and only 2% - 5% are malignant teratomas. What symptom did teratoma break to have? Next, I'd like to share my views with you.

What symptom did teratoma break to have?

Mature cystic teratoma mostly occurs in women of childbearing age about 30 years old. No specific clinical symptoms, the main manifestation is pelvic mass, 25% of patients were found by accident, 10% of patients due to tumor rupture, torsion or bleeding will have acute abdominal pain.

The diagnostic rate of ultrasonography is high, usually unilateral ovarian cystic and solid mass can be seen. The typical ultrasonographic features include dough sign, mural nodule sign, disordered structure sign, lipid stratification sign or waterfall sign. Serological examination showed slight elevation of CA199 and AFP. Complications included torsion, rupture and infection. Torsion of cyst can cause necrosis, perforation and intraperitoneal hemorrhage. Rupture of cyst can cause chemical peritonitis.

Seborrhea into the abdominal cavity can form peritoneal lipid granuloma. Mature teratomas with glial components can be implanted in peritoneum after rupture, which is called peritoneum pseudoglioma. Immature teratomas grow rapidly and can penetrate the capsule in the early stage and spread directly to the pelvic cavity for implantation. Later, lymph node metastasis and extraperitoneal metastasis may occur, and later, hematogenous metastasis may occur to the lung, liver and other organs.

matters needing attention

At present, the etiology of teratoma is unknown, and there is no effective prevention method. The key is regular pelvic examination, early diagnosis and early treatment. Patients with teratoma should avoid strenuous exercise to prevent torsion and rupture. After the operation, we should pay attention to rest, forbid to take a bath in the same room for one month, and check regularly to guard against recurrence.
