Abstract
|
|
|
Small ovarian cysts in the newborn are not uncommon. Fetal ovarian cysts, previously rarely reported, are being diagnosed with increasing frequency with wider utilization of obstetrical sonography.
Most of these small cysts involute within the first few months of life and have noclinical significance. Occassionally, however, a large ovarian cyst is seen antenatally with sonography and presents as an abdominal mass. A large ovarian cyst can
cause
life-threatening complications during parturition and in the neonatal period.
We have recently experienced a case of fetal ovarian cyst in a 28-year-old multiparous woman and report our experience with a brief review of related literatures.
