ABSTRACT
Introduction: Twenty percent of ovarian tumors are of germinal cells and although
many cannot be classified through cytology, teratomes can, and among them, the
struma formed by the thyroid tissue. Recognizing this fact helps the pathologist to
manage intraoperative biopsy and to define the surgical clinical procedure.
Case presentation: A 29 years-old woman seen in the emergency service to
relieve pain in her right inguinal region. On the physical exam, an 8 cm tumor was
found in the right pelvic region, causing pain when palpating it. The vaginal exam
revealed solid gonadal tumor mass. The ultrasound test showed in the right overy
an echolucent image of thick walls with hypoechogenic images inside with 67 × 97 mm
irregular contours and echogenic image covering 20 % of lesion, with poor vascular
pattern.
Conclusions: Clinical data and imaging and cytological exams allow diagnosing
benign struma ovarii.
