Abstract:

  Background and Objective: Ovarian tumors are among the most frequent pathologic conditions in gynecologic practice and a frequent cause of hospitalization and surgery. The aim of this study was to determine histologic distribution of benign operated masses especially functional ovarian cysts. Material and Methods: Benign ovarian files of operated patients (2961 cases) in 20 tertiary and secondary hospitals were reviewed regarding age and histopathology from 1998- 2005. Analysis was done by SPSS software (version 13).   Results: The most common benign histologies in order of frequency were functional cyst (57%), serous cystadenoma (13%), dermoid cyst (10%), mucinous cystadenoma (7%) and endometrioma (6%). Conclusion: Functional cysts were the most common benign ovarian cyst. Nearly high distribution of functional cysts in the present study may be an index of need to management improvement and less surgical decisions in ovarian tumors.

Large Penile Mass With Unusual Benign Histopathology

Pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia is an extremely rare condition presenting as a lesion on the glans penis in older men. Physical exam without biopsy cannot differentiate malignant from nonmalignant growth. We report a case of large penile mass in an elderly male with a history of lichen sclerosis, highly suspicious for malignancy. Subsequent surgical removal and biopsy demonstrated pseudoepith...

Benign ovarian tumors.

The aim of this study was to analyze whether, in a series of benign ovarian tumors, the diagnosis could be reliably established and whether the surgical treatment was appropriate. All patients underwent the preoperative evaluation and laparotomy was performed in all cases. The patients were followed for up to 3-8 years after surgery. Demolition surgery (mono or bilateral adnexiectomy with hyste...

Histopathology of benign non-palpable breast lesions identified by mammography.

Over four years the histological features of benign breast diseases, diagnosed after biopsy of non-palpable mammographic abnormalities, were reviewed and correlated with the mammographic appearances. The histological features were compared with those from all other benign biopsy specimens taken during the same period. The incidence of sclerosing adenosis and microcalcifications was considerably...
