Abstract

Struma ovarii is a rare ovarian lesion characterized by the presence of thyroid tissue. The symptoms of this tumor are nonspecific and thus misdiagnosis to other lesions are common. The initial footprint of the tumor is mostly based on incidental imaging, but definitive diagnosis is possible based on pathological studies.
