Myxoma of the ovary

Abstract

Myxomas are benign tumors that generally arise from the heart, soft tissues, muscle, skin and bone (1). Herein we present a myxoma case found on the ovary. A 12-year-old girl was under follow-up for menstrual irregularities for 1 year and pelvic ultrasonography revealed bilateral para-ovarian simple semisolid lesions. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging was performed, and a cystic lesion (65×4 cm) in the right adnexal region that was hyperintense on T2-AG and hypointense on T1-AG was observed (Figure 1a). Ovarian tumor markers and routine laboratory evaluations were all within normal limits. The right adnexal para-ovarian cystic mass was completely excised
