Overview
Screening
- There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for Struma ovarii.
- However, in cases of metastatic struma ovarii post total thyroidectomy along with radioiodine scanning and radioiodine ablation, the thyroglobulin levels must be monitored as a tumor marker, and diagnostic radioiodine scans should be done to screen for residual or recurrent disease. [1] [2]
