    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theca_lutein_cyst

    Theca lutein cyst is a type of bilateral functional ovarian cyst filled with clear, straw-colored fluid. These cysts result from exaggerated physiological stimulation (hyperreactio luteinalis) due to elevated levels of beta- human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) or hypersensitivity to beta-hCG.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovarian_pregnancy

    An ovarian pregnancy can be mistaken for a tubal pregnancy or a hemorrhagic ovarian cyst or corpus luteum prior to surgery. [8] Sometimes, only the presence of trophoblastic tissue during the histologic examination of material of a bleeding ovarian cyst shows that an ovarian pregnancy was the cause of the bleeding.

    Specifically it works well when the beta-HCG is low and the size of the ectopic is small. [2] Surgery such as a salpingectomy is still typically recommended if the tube has ruptured, there is a fetal heartbeat, or the woman's vital signs are unstable. [2] The surgery may be laparoscopic or through a larger incision, known as a laparotomy. [5]

They can, however, grow to almost 10 cm (3.9 in) in diameter and have the potential to bleed into themselves or twist the ovary, causing pelvic or abdominal pain. It is possible the cyst may rupture, causing internal bleeding and pain. This pain typically disappears within a few days ...

    Other causes of distal tubal occlusion include adhesion formation from surgery, endometriosis, and cancer of the tube, ovary or other surrounding organs. A hematosalpinx is most commonly associated with an ectopic pregnancy. A pyosalpinx is typically seen in a more acute stage of pelvic inflammatory disease and may be part of a tubo-ovarian ...

    [4] [9] Most ovarian teratomas are mature. [10] In adults, testicular teratomas are generally cancerous. [11] Definitive diagnosis is based on a tissue biopsy. [2] Treatment of coccyx, testicular, and ovarian teratomas is generally by surgery. [5] [6] [12] Testicular and immature ovarian teratomas are also frequently treated with chemotherapy ...
