| Popis: | The coexistence of endometrioma with dermoid cyst of the ovaries is an unusual entity, although they are both common and benign gynecological tumors. The present study aimed to investigate the association between ovarian dermoid cyst (teratoma) and endometrioma. We retrospectively, included 315 women with endometrioma and 172 with ovarian teratoma. Data were collected from medical and pathological reports from two different areas between 1995 and 2018. The mean age of cases with endometrioma was similar (35.8±7.2 years) to patients with ovarian teratoma (34.2±6.8 years). Considering the types of dermoid cysts, the observed proportion of mature type was 168/172 (98%), the immature type was 4/172 (2%) and struma ovarii was14/172 (8.1%) respectively. Endometrioma was significantly more frequent in the left ovary [174/266 (65.4%)] than in the right ovary [92/266 (34.6%)], P |
