Abstract

ALMEIDA ESQUIVEL, Yudelky; PINON GARCIA, Karell  and  CREAGH GARCIA, Johenis. Ovarian cystadenofibroma. Medicentro Electrónica [online]. 2023, vol.27, n.4  Epub Dec 01, 2023. ISSN 1029-3043.

Ovarian cystadenofibroma is a rare benign tumour characterized by a biphasic pattern made up of epithelial and stromal components; associated risk factors are currently unknown, although obese and menopausal women taking hormone replacement therapy are at increased risk. We present a 17-year-old female adolescent who was evaluated in an outpatient clinic two years earlier due to a left ovarian cyst. She received hormonal treatment without satisfactory results. She underwent blood analysis tests and imaging studies. Left adnexectomy was performed with the administration of continuous epidural regional anesthesia, and a serous ovarian cystadenofibroma was confirmed by histological study. The goal of treatment in these patients is the complete surgical removal of the lesion given the risk of malignancy; this surgical treatment was fundamental and the evolution was favourable. She had a short and very positive recovery period.

Keywords : cystadenofibroma; ovary.
