MRI diagnosis of ovarian teratomas

Objective：To analyze MRI manifestations of ovarian teratomas to improve its diagnosis.Methods：MRI findings of 70 pathologically-proved ovarian teratomas in 68 patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results：Of 70 lesions,65 were matured,4 were immatured,and the remaining 1 was struma ovarii.All of the 65 mature teratomas were cystic,of which unilocular cyst was seen in 46（71%）,bilocular cyst in 11（17%）,incompletely separated cyst in 3（4%） and multilocular cyst in 5（8%）.The lipid component was found in all mature teratomas with prominent lipid component in 58 tumors,main aqueous fluid cyst with small fat in 7 tumors.Rokitansky nodule,debris and hair,and calcification or tooth were seen in 38（58%）,58（89%） and 20（31%） mature teratomas respectively.All of the 4 immature teratomas were heterogeneous,predominantly solid lesion with scattered small foci of fat,cystic spaces and calcifications.One struma ovarii demonstrated a bilocular cyst without lipid component,with very low signal in one loculation on T2W imaging.Conclusion：The majority of ovarian teratomas can be diagnosed by its characteristic MRI manifestations,whereas the minority without or with small adipose material can be nonspecific.
