Overview
MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of struma ovarii. Findings on MRI suggestive of struma ovarii include solid and cystic lesions.
MRI
- MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of struma ovarii. Findings on MRI suggestive of struma ovarii include: [1]
- Solid and cystic lesions
- Pre-operative radiological diagnosis is essential in order to avoid ovarian cancer type surgery (bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, hysterectomy, omentectomy and occasionally appendectomy).[1] Advanced MRI may be helpful in identifying and to determine the unusual ovarian mass.[1] Occasionally struma ovarii may present as a purely cystic lesion.
