Abstract:
:Mature cystic teratomas (MCT), commonly called dermoid cysts, are the most common benign germ cell tumors of the ovary in women of reproductive age. Future fertility is of major concern among these women; therefore, the surgical management must focus on preserving ovarian tissue and minimizing adhesion formation. Patients requiring surgery should be appropriately counseled about the risks and benefits of laparoscopy and laparotomy, the risks of intraoperative MCT spillage and adhesion formation. In addition, the risks of recurrence and malignant transformation should be discussed. The parents of children with MCTs have the same concerns as older women and a similar discussion should take place. The goal of this article is to review these issues and provide the physician with the information to counsel their patients preoperatively.
