| description | The occurrence of ovarian cyst in the neonate is rare and antenatally diagnosed by ultrasonography. This study aims to increase awareness about its occurrence and histological features. We performed a retrospective review on 10 cases of neonatal ovarian cyst (NOC) during 4 years (2016–2020) in a tertiary care center in South India. The neonates were diagnosed with abdominal cysts by the antenatal ultrasonogram in the third trimester. They were operated from day 5 to 35 days of age. There was no side predilection, and most of them were unilateral (9 out of 10 cases). Histopathological examination showed simple cysts (50%), serous cystadenomas (20%), cyst with no viable lining (20%), and follicular cyst (10%) and 90% of the cysts had torsion-induced changes. The pathologist and the clinician should be aware of the occurrence of serous histology in NOC cases. |
