What is the cause of malignant ovarian cyst?

General situation: Benign cases mostly occur in women of childbearing age and are generally in good condition; while malignant cases mostly occur in prepubertal girls, teenagers or postmenopausal women. The disease progresses rapidly, with metastatic lesions in the early stages, and rapid appearance of malignant symptoms such as weight loss.

Physical signs: Benign cases are often unilateral, movable, with a smooth surface, intact capsule, cystic, and no ascites; while malignant cases are sometimes bilateral, immobile, often adhered to surrounding tissues, partially solid, with a rough surface, and may penetrate the capsule and implant in the abdominal or pelvic cavity. Fixed nodules can be felt in the rectouterine pouch, often accompanied by bloody ascites. Cancer cells may be found during aspiration of the ascites.

Ultrasound: Benign cases are mostly liquid dark areas with clear edges, while malignant cases have messy light clusters in the liquid dark areas and the boundaries of the tumor are unclear.

Tumor markers: Markers of malignant tumors can often be detected.

Pathological examination: The most important identification method is to take the lesion tissue for pathological examination. A biopsy of the lesion can be taken before surgery, or a comprehensive pathological examination can be performed on the tumor removed during surgery. (Generally not done because it can cause the tumor to spread)

Effective treatment method: Once ovarian cysts are diagnosed, surgical treatment should be performed. Unless a physiological cyst is suspected, short-term observation and follow-up can be performed.
