Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify the cooperation between histologic diagnosis and sonographic pattern of functional ovarian cyst. And also determine performances of ultrasound, computed tomography, and tumor markers in diagnosis of functional ovarian cyst.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 129 patients with ovarian cystic tumors undergone an adnexectomy between 2006 and 2008 at Kyung Hee medical center. All patients performed sonographic examinations, and a computed tomography or CA-125 or CA-19-9 were done if needed.
Results: Among 129 patients, 35 patients were diagnosed to be functional ovarian cyst. Sensitivity and specificity of ultrasound for functional cyst was 37.1% and 82.9%, respectively. Sensitivity and specificity of computed tomography was 47.6% and 69.3%, respectively. Tumor markers were not useful to detect functional ovarian cyst. If any one of the two appeared functional ovarian cyst, the sensitivity and specificity was 66.6%, 67.7% each.
Conclusion: Computed tomography can be used as an alternative option replacing ultrasound, but combination of computed tomography and ultrasound does not provide the additional benefit in early diagnosis of functional ovarian cyst.
