Abstract
Ovarian masses (tumors) are very often in gynaecological daily practice. Almost 5%-10% of the women worldwide receive operative procedures for ovarian pathology. The risk related to ovarian cancer is increased from 3d to 8th decade of woman's life. However, in 80% of the ovarian pathology, the etiology will be of benign origin (cystic, solid, or mixed). The accurate follow-up of patients with adnexal pathology may contribute the early diagnosis of the disease and the improvement of prognosis in a case of malignancy. Optimal management of cysts in postmenopausal women remains challenging. The chapter aims to summarize current clinical evidence regarding diagnosis and treatment of such a pathology.
