Abstract

Optimal treatment of cystadenoma if diagnosed consists of complete resection of the tumor. In case of atypical radiological criteria, therapeutic strategy is not well defined. The attitude we adopt is to regularly monitor the lesion. Surgical removal of the tumor is of course indicated facing any significant change on sonography or tomodensiometry.
