The Case of Olivia Carson • You are a generalist in the community. • You have a new patient. • She is a 65 year old with a large pelvic mass arising from the right adnexum.
The Case of Olivia Carson • What is the likelihood that she has ovarian cancer?
The Case of Olivia Carson • What is the likelihood that she has ovarian cancer? • Age • Menopausal status • Mass characteristics
Ovarian Neoplasms • 90% benign • 10% malignant
Predictive Value of Menopausal Status Vasilev. Obstet Gynecol 1988
The Case of Olivia Carson • The only other data you have is that she underwent an imaging study. • Which study do you hope she has had?

Transvaginal Ultrasound • Cost effective • High frequency • Improved resolution
Simple cyst Complex cyst Ultrasound Evaluation of Adnexal Masses
Simple cyst Anechoic Smooth walls Complex cyst Cystic and solid Irregular outline Septa Papilla Heterogeneous Ultrasound Evaluation of Adnexal Masses
Ultrasound scoring system 1-3 = benign 4-6 = equivocal 7-10 = malig

The Case of Olivia Carson • Her ultrasound shows a solid mass. • If this were cancer, predict the histology.

The Case of Olivia Carson • 65 year old with a large pelvic mass arising from the right adnexum. • Solid mass on TV US. • What will you do to treat her?
Management of Stromal Tumors • Washings • USO • Consider TAH BSO, nodes • Granulosa cell tumors • Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors • Suspicious for malignancy

The Case of Olivia Carson • 15 year old with a large pelvic mass arising from the right adnexum. • She underwent a USO at an outside hospital. A germ cell tumor was found on final path. • What do you recommend?
The Case of Olivia Carson • You are a generalist in the community. • You have a new patient. • She is a 65 year old with a TV US showing a 5 cm right ovarian cystic mass with one septation. • Her CA-125 is 40. • Do you refer her or keep her?
