Abstract

An adnexal mass is a common gynecological problem. In this article, a retrospective analysis has been carried out of all ovarian tumors intervened between November 2015 and February 2019 at the Jaén Hospital Complex, belonging to the Andalusian Health Service, whose reference area covers the health centers of the Districts of Jaén and Jaén Sur; In addition to referrals from regional hospitals belonging to the province. The data have been obtained from the database of our computer system (Diraya), obtaining the following results in the 91 pathological studies reviewed of the surgical interventions performed in the described time: endometrioma (38.5%) followed by mature teratoma ( 22%), thirdly, simple serous cyst (12%), fourth place mucinous cystadenoma (10.9%) fifth serous cystadenoma (8.9%), sixth serous cystadenofibroma (5.5%) and finally We have found a case of mucinous cystadenofibroma and cyst of the rete. In our review we have seen that the frequencies of each benign cyst may be different from those described in the literature because of the specific characteristics of each hospital, as in our case that the endometrioma is the most frequent benign cyst, however in the literature the most frequent are mature cystadenomas and teratomas.
