Genital tuberculosis involving the ovary in a non-immunocompromised individual is rare. We report a case of coexisting ovarian serous cystadenoma and tuberculosis in a 29-year-old Indian woman. Clinical examination revealed the presence of an abdominal mass suspicious for ovarian neoplasm. Histopathological evaluation revealed ovarian neoplasm and concomitant tuberculosis. To the best of our knowledge, and after an extensive search of the literature, the coexistence of benign ovarian neoplasm and tuberculosis has not been previously documented.
非免疫功能低下者的卵巢结核较为罕见。我们报告了一例 29 岁印度女性同时患有卵巢浆液性囊腺瘤和结核的病例。临床检查发现存在疑似卵巢肿瘤的腹部肿块。组织病理学评估显示存在卵巢肿瘤和同时存在的结核。据我们所知,经过广泛的文献检索,以前没有记录过良性卵巢肿瘤和结核同时存在的情况。
