Abstract :
Missing teeth (hypodontia) is known to have association with ovarian tumors, particularly epithelial cell ovarian carcinoma. In the reported case, hypodontia was associated with bilateral complex cystic ovarian dermoids. Ovarian dermoid cyst or mature teratoma is the most common benign ovarian tumor in females less than 45 years of age1. Because of heterogeneous morphology and solid–cystic nature, it is sometimes difficult to differentiate them from malignant lesions. They are almost always benign and rarely show malignant transformation. We report a case of large bilateral ovarian dermoid cysts on USG & MRI in a patient who underwent ovarian screening after dental anomalies were found.
