Background: To evaluate the predictive role of a risk of malignancy index in discriminating between benign and malignant adnexal masses preoperatively. Materials and Methods: A total of 408 patients with adnexal masses managed surgically between January 2010 and February 2014 were included. The risk of malignancy indices (RMI) 1, 2, 3 and 4 were calculated using findings for ultrasonography, menopausal status, and CA125 levels. Histopathologic results were the end point. ROC analysis was used for the sensitivity and the specificity of the models. Results: Some 37.6 % of the cases were malignant in the postmenopausal group while 7.9 % were malignant in the premenopausal group. Pelvic pain was the most common complaint, and the majority of the cases were diagnosed at stage 3. The RMI 1, 2, 3 and 4 yielded percentage sensitivities of 76.1, 79.1, 76.1 and 76.1 and specificities of 91.5, 89.1, 90.6, 88.6, respectively. RMI 1 was the most reliable test in the general population according to AUC levels and Kappa statistics. From ROC analysis results of post/premenopausal women, the RMI 1 (cut off: 200) yielded sensitivities of 84.0/60.9 and specificities of 87.7/92.5. With RMI 2 they were 88.6/60.9 and 80.0/91.0, with RMI 3 84.0/60.9 and 87.7/91.8, and with RMI 4 (cut off:400) 81.8/47.8 and 83.6 /44.0. Although test performance of RMI methods were good in a general population and postmenopausal women, the RMI inter-agreement validity was only moderate or fair in premenopausal women. Conclusions: Our study confirms the effectiveness of RMI algorithms in postmenopausal women. However, more sensitive tests are needed for premenopausal women.

복부 팽만과 복수, 복부 종괴 및 혈청 CA-125가 상승하는 경우 반드시 복막 결핵을 의심해야 하며 보다 정확하고 빠른 진단을 위해 복막 천자를 통한 염색 및 균 배양뿐 아니라 ADA, 중합 효소 연쇄 반응 및 진단적 복강경 검사 등이 필요하다. 저자들은 난소 종양의 임상 양상을 보인 5세 여아에서 복막 결핵을 진단한 예가 있어 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

난소 낭종은 신생아기 여아의 가장 흔한 복강 내 낭성 종괴로, 대부분은 자연 소멸되지만 일부는 난소 염전, 낭종 내 출혈, 난소 파열 등의 합병증으로 인해 수술적 치료를 필요로 한다. 난소 낭종의 파열은 매우 드물게 발생하는 것으로 알려져 있으며, 심한 혈성 복수나 복막염 등으로 인해 사망을 초래하기도 한다. 저자들은 산전 초음파를 통해 복강내 종괴가 발견되었고 출생 후 경도의 복부 팽만 및 두 차례의 혈뇨를 주소로 내원한 2일된 신생아에서 탐색 개복술을 통해 우측 난소 낭종의 염전 및 파열을 진단하고, 우측 난관-난소절제술을 통해 성공적으로 치료하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Background: Ovarian cancer is the most common cancer cause of gynecologic cancer deaths. In order to increase the likelihood of patient survival through primary operation by gyneco-oncologists, an appropriate algorithm for referral is considered here. Materials and Methods: Suspicious adnexal mass cases including ovarian malignancy probability score-1 (OMPS1) scores between 2.3-3.65 are re-evaluated by OMPS2. Sensitivity and specificity of each score were determined. Results: Sensitivity and specificity with a 3.82 score of OMPS2 in the studied subgroup (OMPS1 scores between 2.3-3.65) were 64% and 76.9% respectively. Conclusions: Management of OMPS1 scores of below 2.3 with sensitivity of 100% and above 3.65 with specificity of 72.9% is clear. In the subgroup of cases with OMPS1 score between 2.3-3.65, OMPS2 is helpful for triage with a cutoff score of 3.82.

Two female Yorkshire terrier was referred to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, Seoul National University. In case 1, clinical signs were vomiting, anorexia and weight loss. Cystic intraabdominal mass was identified in radiographic and ultrasonographic examination. In case 2, clinical sign was abdominal distension. In radiographic and ultrasonographic examination, cellular ascites and bilateral intraabdominal masses next to kidneys were observed. Many clusters of glandular epithelial cells with anisocytosis, anisokaryosis, high N:C ratio coarse chromatin and prominent nucleoli were shown in cytologic examination of sanguineous ascites. In all two cases exploratory laparotomy was performed and enlarged ovaries were observed (Rt: 6$\times$5$\times$5 cm and Lt: 3$\times$2$\times$1 cm in case 1 and 3$\times$2$\times$1 cm bilaterally in case 2). After ovariohysterectomy histopathologic examinations were performed. Histopathologically the masses were diagnosed as ovarian adenocarcinoma and ovarian cystadenocarcinoma in case 1 and case 2, respectively. In both dogs no further chemotherapy was carried out. These two dogs had no gross evidence of tumor recurrence at the time of 3 months after tumor resection, but long-term follow-up might be needed.

Objective: The aim of our study is to compare an ovarian malignancy prediction model based on age and four sonographic findings (OMPS1) with a new model called OMPS2 which differs just by adding serum CA125 measurement to (OMPS1). Methods: In a cross sectional comparative study OMPS1 was validated in 830 operated ovarian masses within a 3 years period (2006-2009). Logistic regression analysis was used to construct OMPS2 based on OMPS1 adding serum CA125 findings. The area under the curve for two models was compared in 411 patients. Results: OMPS2 was calculated as follows: OMPS1 + 1.444 (if serum CA125= 36-200) or 3.842 (if serum CA125 is more than 200). AUC of OMPS2 was increased to 84.3% (CI 95% 78.1- 89.8) in comparison to OMPS1 with AUC of 78.1% (CI 95% 71.8-84.5). Conclusion: Our second model is more accurate in prediction of ovarian malignancy, compared with our first model.

목 적 : 서혜부 탈장은 소아에서 비교적 흔하지만, 여아 탈장의 15-31%를 차지하는 난소 탈장은 아직까지 정립된 치료 원칙이 없고 국내에서는 질병의 경과에 대한 보고가 없다. 이에 연구자들은 난소 탈장 환아들의 특성과 임상 경과에 대하여 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2001년 3월부터 2007년 2월까지 관동대학교의과대학 제일병원에서 난소 탈장으로 진단받은 1세미만 여아 8명을 대상으로 환아들의 재태 연령, 출생체중, 난소 탈장 발견시기와 주 호소, 수술 시기 및 수술법, 수술 후 합병증 여부, 현재의 상태, 서혜부 초음파결과를 의무기록지와 전화 통화를 통해 후향적으로 조사하였다. 난소 탈장은 서혜부 종괴 여부와 초음파 검사 결과 난소가 서혜부에 위치하는 경우에 진단하였다. 결 과 : 환아들의 재태 연령은 $32^{+5}-40^{+1}$주 범위였으며, 이 중 37주 미만 미숙아는 4명(50%)이고, 출생체중은 1,600-3,505 g 범위였다. 대상 환아 중 7명(87.5%)은 좌측 난소 탈장이 있었으며, 1명(12.5%)은 우측에 난소 탈장이 있었다. 종괴를 발견한 시기는 생후 13-144일 사이로 다양하였으며, 수술 받은 환아들의 수술시기는 생후 50${\pm}$15일(35-65일)이었다. 현재까지 8명중 5명이 탈장 봉합술을 시행 받았으며, 합병증은 없었다. 수술을 시행하지 않은 3명은 경과 관찰 중에 수술없이 저절로 정복되었으며, 종괴가 사라진 나이는 생후121${\pm}$46일(70-161일)이었고, 관찰 기간 중(69-1,925일)감돈이나 재발은 없었다. 결 론 : 미숙아 여아인 경우 탈장의 빈도가 만삭아에 비해 높으므로 신체 검진을 통한 대음순 종괴의 발견이 중요하며, 초음파 검사를 통하여 확진한다. 소아의 난소 탈장은 아직까지 일관된 치료 방침이 없고, 외과의 의견을 따라 가능한 한 빠른 시일 내에 수술을 시행하였었기에 경과를 제대로 알 수 없었으나, 저자들이 경과 관찰을 하던 3명의 여아에서 생후 6개월 이내에 난소탈장이 저절로 정복되는 예를 경험하였고, 관찰 기간동안 재발은 없었다. 난소 탈장의 환자를 대상으로 추적관찰을 하여 적절한 치료 방침을 마련하여야 하겠다.

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangement, is a kind of driver mutation, accounts for 3%-5% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC patients harboring ALK fusion genes have distinct clinical features and good response to ALK inhibitors. Metastasis from lung cancer to the ovary has rarely been known. We report a case of a 54-year-old woman with bilateral ovarian metastases from ALK rearranged NSCLC. She underwent bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for ovary masses, which were progressed after cytotoxic chemotherapy although primary lung mass was decreased. Histopathological examination of the ovary tumor showed characteristic adenocarcinoma patterns of the lung and ALK rearrangement.

Echinococcosis is a multisystem disease and has propensity to involve any organ, an unusual anatomical site, and can mimic any disease process. Primary peritoneal echinococcosis is known to occur secondary to hepatic involvement but occasional cases of primary peritoneal hydatid disease including pelvic involvement have also been reported. We report here 1 such case of primary pelvic hydatidosis mimicking a malignant multicystic ovarian tumor where there was no evidence of involvement of the liver or spleen. Our patient, a 27-year-old female, was detected to have a large right cystic adnexal mass on per vaginal examination which was confirmed by ultrasonography. Her biochemical parameters were normal and CA-125 levels, though mildly raised, were below the cut off point. She underwent surgery and on exploratory laparotomy, another cystic mass was found attached to the mesentery of the small gut. The resected cysts were processed histopathologically. On cut sections both large cysts revealed numerous daughter cysts. Microscopic examination of fluid from the cysts revealed free scolices with hooklets and the cyst wall had a typical laminated membrane with inner germinal layer containing degenerated protoplasmic mass. The diagnosis of pelvic hydatid disease was confirmed and patient was managed accordingly. Hydatid disease must be considered while making the differential diagnosis of pelvic cystic masses, especially in endemic areas.

1년령의 중성화 암컷, 2.35 kg의 아메리칸 숏헤어 고양이가 난소 자궁 절제술을 실시한 후 3개월 시점으로부터 2개월간 지속된 발정 증상을 주증으로 내원하였다. 방사선 및 초음파 검사상, 양쪽 신장 후방에 위치한 낭성 구조물을 확인하였고, 이는 혈액검사상 나타난 고에스트로겐혈증을 고려하여 난소 조직으로 의심되었다. 복강경을 이용한 복강 탐색을 실시하였고, 양측 신장 후방의 낭성 병변을 초음파 수술도를 이용하여 절제하였다. 환자는 특이사항 없이 회복하여 술 후 2년간 증상의 재발 없이 지내고 있다. 증례를 통하여, 선택적 난소 절제술뿐만 아니라 잔존 난소의 경우에도 복강경을 유용하게 적용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
