Simple cyst with size less than 10 cm
Bulkhead thickness of less than 3 mm 1 side
Not form a mass in the abdomen

Malignant if:
Solid tumors (solid) or a mixture
Many bulkhead and thick bulkhead (wall) more than 3 mm 2 sides
Forming a mass in the abdomen (ascites)

* Based on anatomic pathology examination (PA) cells
tame:
No attachment so easily moved (mobile)
Capsules (wrapper) intact cyst

Malignant if:
There are so hard driven attachment (fixed)
Capsules (wrapping) cysts incomplete / broken / rupture

What is the treatment? Treatment depends on the type and size of the cyst and the age of the patient.

Gynecologic clinical examination to detect the presence of ovarian cysts or enlargement of the other.
Ultrasound examination, if necessary by means of Doppler to detect blood flow.
Examination of tumor markers (tumor marker)
A CT-Scan / MRI if necessary

Examination of the above is highly recommended, especially for women who are at risk of ovarian cancer will occur, namely:
