Ovarian Fibroma Treatment

The diagnosis be- tween fibroma of the ovary and myoma of the uterus may be fairly easy,provided it is pos- sible to outline a per- fectly normal uterus.

  If, on the other hand, the uterus contains myomata, the differentiation between the solid ovarian tumor and the myomata is well-nigh impossible. The following cases illustrate this difficulty : . A few cervical glands are dilated, otherwise the cervix is normal, a is the distorted uterine cavity. 

 Occupying the fundus is a homogeneous growth showing little structure.

 At b it is hemorrhagic and is disintegrating. At c the growth forms a nodular projection from the peritoneal surface. The postoperative history indicated wide-spread lymphatic involvement in a few months.
