شماره ركورد

Abstract
In this case report, we emphasize the recurrence and multilocularity properties of mature cystic teratomas. A 26 year old G0 woman complaining of stomachache and abdominal distention attended to the gynecology outpatient clinic. Transvaginal ultrasound revealed a 9 cm right ovarian mass with echogenecities suggesting sebaceous material within multiple dermoid cyst loci. A diagnostic laparoscopy was planned; seven separate loci of the dermoid cysts ranging between 2 - 5 cm with a total diameter of approximately 9 cm, were located on the right ovary. The patient was discharged on the second day after the operation without any complication. This patient is the only case having the properties of both recurrence and multilocularity in the Medline database search. Especially, the regular follow-up of the young patients has a clinical importance in early detection of the recurrent masses and during the surgeries of the recurrent cases, the surgeon should be careful about the bilaterality or multilocularity of the tumor.
