Effect of differences in O-RADS lexicon interpretation between senior and junior sonologists on O-RADS classification and diagnostic performance. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2023; 149:12275-12283. [PMID: 37430161 PMCID: PMC10465637 DOI: 10.1007/s00432-023-05108-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/30/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the consistency of Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) lexicon interpretation between senior and junior sonologists and to investigate its impact on O-RADS classification and diagnostic performance. METHODS We prospectively studied 620 patients with adnexal lesions, all of whom underwent transvaginal or transrectal ultrasound performed by a senior sonologist (R1) who selected the O-RADS lexicon description and O-RADS category for the lesion after the examination. Meanwhile, the junior sonologist (R2) analyzed the images retained by R1 and divided the lesion in the same way. Pathological findings were used as a reference standard. kappa (к) statistics were used to assess the interobserver agreement. RESULTS Of the 620 adnexal lesions, 532 were benign and 88 were malignant. When using the O-RADS lexicon, R1 and R2 had almost perfect agreement regarding lesion category, external contour of solid lesions, presence of papillary inside cystic lesions, and fluid echogenicity (к: 0.81-1.00). Substantial agreement in solid components, acoustic shadow, vascularity and O-RADS categories (к: 0.61-0.80). Consistency in classifying classic benign lesions in the O-RADS category was only moderate (к = 0.535). No significant difference in diagnostic performance between them using O-RADS (P = 0.1211). CONCLUSION There was good agreement between senior and junior sonologists in the interpretation of the O-RADS lexicon and in the classification of O-RADS, except for a moderate agreement in the interpretation and classification of classic benign lesions. Differences in O-RADS category delineation between sonologists had no significant effect on the diagnostic performance of O-RADS.

Abstract
Incidental ovarian lesions are asymptomatic lesions that are accidentally discovered during a CT or MRI examinations that involves the pelvic cavity or during a routine obstetric ultrasound study. Incidental ovarian masses are usually benign with a very low risk of malignancy yet underlying malignant pathology may be discovered during the diagnostic work-up of these lesions. Suspicion of malignancy is directly correlating with the increase in the patient's age, the increase in the size of the lesion, the presence of the solid components or thick septa and a high color scale of the ovarian mass. Following standard reporting and management protocols are essential to choose the proper work-up of these lesions to avoid unnecessary additional imaging and operative intervention. In this article, we will provide a review of the characteristic imaging features of some incidental and yet commonly encountered ovarian lesions. We will also summarize the recently published algorithms that are important for consistent reporting and standard management of these lesions.

CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 9:children9101571. [PMID: 36291507 PMCID: PMC9599961 DOI: 10.3390/children9101571] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2022] [Revised: 10/08/2022] [Accepted: 10/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Background: Ovarian teratomas are the most common type of ovarian mass during childhood and adolescence. There is no clear guidance for the management of the ovarian teratomas in children and adolescents. It is necessary, however, to understand the feature of these tumours and the indications for operating on them, and to put subjective criteria for the management in elective or emergency presentations. Methods: Medical records of patients between the age of 12 and 20 years old that underwent surgery for ovarian teratomas at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology in University Hospital of Ioannina, between January 2000 and August 2022, were reviewed. A medical database was searched between January 2000 and August 2022 with the following keywords: ovarian teratoma, paediatrics and adolescents. Results: We present the results of forty patients, with a mean age of 11.8 years of age. All patients had surgery, where three out of four underwent oophorectomy and only one out of four underwent ovary-sparing operation; similar results were found in the literature. Conclusion: Ovary-sparing treatment is more common recently compared with the past, such as MIS compared with laparotomy. Better-organised and -planned prospective multi-centre studies are necessary to gain a deeper knowledge of the physiology and prognostic factors of teratomas in children.

Abstract
Mature cystic teratomas (MCTs) have a rare but recognised association with IgG-mediated autoimmune haemolytic anaemia (AIHA). We present the first case of an MCT associated with IgA-mediated AIHA. We discuss the diagnostic challenges of patients presenting with a direct antiglobulin test negative AIHA picture and the importance of reviewing these cases with the local transfusion laboratory. We also review the treatment options for MCT associated AIHA. In particular, we note they are typically resistant to immunosuppression and that surgical resection should be considered at an early stage. Although MCTs are a rare cause of AIHA, they can be treated easily and should be excluded in young women presenting with AIHA, especially if resistant to corticosteroids.

Abstract
AIM Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is one of the autoimmune encephalitis, which often occurs in children and young adults, especially in young women. In addition to viral infection, teratoma is an important causative factor. Anti-NMDAR encephalitis is well known to neurologist. However, this is less well known to gynecologists, who may have a decisive role in etiological management. Therefore, from the perspective of gynecologists, we provide an overview of the relationship between the encephalitis and ovarian teratoma, the clinical features and treatment of this disease, and prognosis of pregnant women with this encephalitis. METHODS We searched the PubMed database using the search terms in various combinations "teratoma," "dermoid cyst," "ovary," "ovarian," "anti-NMDAR encephalitis," and "N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor." RESULTS According to the current literature, the mechanism of anti-NMDAR encephalitis is probably due to the ectopic expression of the NMDAR in the teratomas tissue. The disease has a high mortality rate if not treated promptly and effectively. An important way to improve patients' outcome is to remove the ovarian tumor in time. Pregnant women are also at risk of developing anti-NMDAR encephalitis during pregnancy. The fetal outcome is usually better in patients with mid- to late-pregnancy onset than in early pregnancy, and patients are often able to maintain their pregnancies into late pregnancy. CONCLUSION Young women with sudden onset of abnormal psychiatric behavior should be actively screened for ovarian tumors and, if confirmed to be teratoma-associated anti-NMDAR encephalitis, should undergo gynecologic surgery as early as possible, which can help improve their prognosis.

Abstract
Fetiform teratoma, also recognized as a homunculus, is a largely uncommon form of mature cystic teratoma. Here, we present the case of a 17-year-old single female who presented to the emergency department complaining of abdominal distension and pain for four months. Abdominal examination revealed a left-sided mass. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a multi-loculated and multi-septated left cystic ovarian mass, suspicious for a teratoma. The patient underwent laparoscopy and a left cystectomy was performed. The final histopathologic diagnosis was consistent with fetiform teratoma. Although extremely rare, ovarian fetiform teratoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of women presenting with an abdominopelvic mass. It should be discerned from fetus-in-fetu and ectopic pregnancy. Careful clinical presentation, laboratory testing for beta-human chorionic gonadotropin, histopathologic examination, and cytogenetic analysis can greatly aid in pinpointing the diagnosis. Overall, fetiform teratoma carries a favorable prognosis; however, follow-up surveillance is advised to monitor for uncommon occasions of tumor persistence or relapse.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of ovarian mature teratoma in patients with anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor encephalitis (NMDAR-E). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 125 women (mean age, 40.9±17.8 [SD] years; age range: 12-85 years) with 146 histopathologically or radiologically proven ovarian mature teratomas who underwent preoperative CT and MRI examinations were retrospectively included. Eight patients with 11 teratomas had NMDAR-E, whereas 117 patients with 135 teratomas did not have NMDAR-E. CT and MRI examinations were retrospectively reviewed and teratomas in patients with NMDAR-E were compared to those in patients without NMDAR-E. Comparisons were performed using Mann-Whitney U test or Fisher exact test. RESULTS In patients with NMDAR-E, maximum diameter of teratomas (26.1±9.3 [SD] mm), prevalence of teeth/calcification (36%) and rate of occupation by fat components (26%) were lower than those in patients without NMDAR-E (67.0±37.6 [SD] mm [P<0.01]; 75% [P<0.05]; and 65%[P<0.01], respectively). More than 75% of space was occupied by fat components in 76/135 teratomas (56%) in patients without NMDAR-E, whereas this was not observed in any teratoma in patients without NMDAR-E. CONCLUSION By comparison with teratomas in patients without NMDAR-E, teratomas in patients with NMDAR-E are smaller, have few teeth/calcification, and the amount of space occupied by fat components is smaller.
