Mature cystic teratomas are the most common benign ovarian neoplasms. Our aim is to analyse these cases by pathologic and clinical findings in our centre with the view of updated knowledge.
In our study, 50 case reports diagnosed as mature cystic teratoma (or dermoid cyst) in Mustafa Kemal University Pathology Laboratory between 2005 and 2010 have been reviewed.
Of 50 cases, the findings on mature cystic teratomas were as follows: the number of tumours located at the right ovary was 22, the left ovary, 23, with 5 cases bilaterally. Age range was 14-58 with mean rate 35.4. In two cases, tumour markers were high, one case presented with torsion; one case was obtained incidentally during delivery.
Mature cystic teratomas are benign neoplasms with low malign transformation rate. Our series are low in number but our findings show the dynamic nature of these tumours.
成熟囊性畸胎瘤是最常见的良性卵巢肿瘤。我们旨在通过我们中心的病理和临床发现来分析这些病例，以获得最新的知识。
在我们的研究中，回顾了 2005 年至 2010 年间在穆斯塔法·凯末尔大学病理学实验室诊断为成熟囊性畸胎瘤（或皮样囊肿）的 50 例病例报告。
在 50 例病例中，成熟囊性畸胎瘤的发现如下：位于右侧卵巢的肿瘤数量为 22 个，左侧卵巢为 23 个，双侧各有 5 个。年龄范围为 14-58 岁，平均年龄为 35.4 岁。有 2 例肿瘤标志物升高，1 例发生扭转，1 例在分娩时偶然发现。
成熟囊性畸胎瘤是良性肿瘤，恶性转化率低。我们的病例数量较少，但我们的发现表明了这些肿瘤的动态性质。
