Overview
The clinical manifestations of patients with epithelial ovarian tumors depend on the type of the tumor and its potential to produce hormonal materials. Usually, they present with abdominal pain or distention, menstrual irregularities, symptoms of virilization, rapidly growing abdominal/pelvic mass, acute abdominal pain from complications such as necrosis, capsular distention, rupture or torsion and or simply they can be asymptomatic.
History and Symptoms
The clinical manifestations of patients with epithelial ovarian tumors depend on the type of the tumor and its potential to produce hormonal materials. Usually, they present with abdominal pain or distention, menstrual irregularities, symptoms of virilization, rapidly growing abdominal/pelvic mass, acute abdominal pain from complications such as necrosis, capsular distention, rupture or torsion and or simply they can be asymptomatic.[1]
- Approximately 20 % of patients are asymptomatic.[2]
- The most common symptom in those who are symptomatic is lower abdominal pain.
- Acute abdominal pain may indicate the tumor is complicated by ovarian torsion or rupture that may happen in 5%-10% and 1%-3% of affected individuals, respectively.
- Very rarely, epithelial ovarian tumors can manifest with neurologic symptoms due to associated Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. Symptoms such as:[3]
- Memory problems
- Psychiatric problems
- Decreased level of consciousness
- Seizure
- Dyskinesia
Hormonal
