Abstract

The advent of transvaginal sonography has improved the ability of radiologists to visualise both ovaries and has facilitated the preoperative characterisation of many of these lesions. We describe the beneficial role of transvaginal sonography in the accurate preoperative characterisation of dermoid cysts of the ovary in two patients and describe the characteristic features of ovarian dermoid cysts.
