How to treat ovarian tumors

Patients with malignant tumors should choose whether to receive adjuvant chemotherapy based on tissue type, degree of cell differentiation, surgical pathological staging, and residual size. The main purpose of surgery is to clarify the diagnosis, remove the tumor, perform pathological analysis, relieve complications, and perform rapid pathological examination. It is recommended that women undergo a comprehensive gynecological examination every year, and genetic testing should be performed for women with a family history of ovarian cancer. Preventive bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is recommended after delivery. Ovarian malignancies are difficult to detect in the early stages, and there is a lack of effective treatment in the late stages.

How is ovarian tumor surgery performed?

During the gynecological examination, if an ovarian cyst is found, further follow-up observation is required. If the ovarian cyst is benign, the scope of surgery is determined based on the size of the tumor, the nature of the tumor, the patient's age, and the patient's fertility requirements. If the ovarian cyst pedicle is torsion, the ovarian cyst is ruptured, or the ovarian cyst has malignant changes, timely surgical treatment is performed. How to perform ovarian cyst surgery: The tissue composition of ovarian tumors is very complex. It is the organ with the most primary tumor types among all organs in the body. The tissue structure and biological behavior of different types vary greatly. Benign tumors may also require emergency treatment due to ovarian cyst pedicle torsion, ovarian cyst rupture, or secondary infection of ovarian cysts. Malignant changes in benign ovarian cysts will increase the scope and damage of surgery.
