| Abstract | ||||
| An adnexal mass is an abnormal growth that develops near the uterus, most commonly arising from the ovaries, fallopian tubes, or connective tissues. The lump-like mass can be cystic or solid. Adnexal masses may occur at any age, although they are more typically seen in women of reproductive age. Adnexal masses are characterized on ultrasonography as cystic, solid, or complex. According to an American College of Radiology guideline, simple cysts in premenopausal women are considered benign. In children and adolescents adnexal masses are uncommon, with the incidence of neoplastic masses being estimated at 2.6 per 100,000 girls each year. Several retrospective studies have been published with patient numbers varying from 20 to over 500 patients. These populations mostly represent single center series and present heterogenic distributions of the different histological subtypes with malignancy rates differing widely. AIM OF THE WORK: To evaluate the varies presentations of adnexal mass in child, adolescent and reproductive age female groups. To differentiate into benign and malignant adnexal mass. Detection and evaluation of adnexal mass by using different diagnostic methods including risk of malignancy index. | ||||
