Ovarian fibroma--clinical and histopathological characteristics.
    International journal of gynaecology and obstetrics: the official organ of the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, 1990, Volume: 33, Issue:3

    Twenty-three cases of ovarian fibroma, comprising 3% of all benign tumors seen over a 20-year period, were analyzed. It was unilateral in all cases affecting more commonly the left ovary (70%). Whilst a majority of cases (77%) were encountered in the reproductive age group, the tumor was rare before the second decade. Only in 13% of cases was ascitis clinically detectable. This was not influenced by the size and weight (average of 9.3 x 10.8 x 11.1 cm and 959 g, respectively) of the tumors; a smooth-surfaced tumor was, however, associated with a greater amount of peritoneal fluid. Varying degrees of calcification in some tumors are detectable on ultrasonography and occasionally on abdominal radiography. The classical Meig's Syndrome was seldom encountered. The histopathological features, diagnostic problems and management are discussed.
