Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed 91 cases of cystic teratomas of the ovary at Farhat-Hached Hospital, finding they accounted for 12.13% of all ovarian tumors over an 8-year period.
- Most patients (67%) presented with abdominal or pelvic pain, and the average tumor size was 10 cm, with some cases discovered incidentally during pregnancy.
- The research concluded that mature cystic teratomas are the most common type of ovarian neoplasm in women of reproductive age, typically treated via laparoscopic surgery, while immature teratomas may require laparotomy and chemotherapy.
