This case study involves the investigation of an ovarian cystadenoma in a 79 year-old female cadaver. Histologic examination revealed classic features of a serous cystadenoma. It is of critical importance clinically to correctly differentiate between various benign masses. Classically, definitive diagnosis relies on histopathology, an invasive procedure. Alternatively, ultrasonography is less invasive and can be utilized to diagnose and monitor cysts, which can be distinguished from malignant ovarian neoplasms due to the lack of nodules. Conservative management of a benign cystadenoma is commonly recommended due to the high likelihood that it will resolve within two years or remain unchanged.
