To investigate the clinical significance of transvaginal color-pulse Doppler sonography in ovarian tumors, 109 patients were examined at Nagoya University Hospital. Ultrasonographic patterns were classified and the levels of three circulating tumor markers, CA125, CA72-4, and CA19-9, were simultaneously evaluated. In differentiating benign and malignant ovarian tumors, transvaginal color-pulse Doppler and ultrasonographic pattern classification were superior to the tumor markers. Of 49 cases with benign pattern, 45 were benign (91.8%). Of 60 cases with malignant pattern, 24 (40%) were benign and 36 (60%) were malignant or borderline malignant. In this group color-pulse Doppler sonography was the most useful procedure, and sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 75.0, 79.2, and 76.7%, respectively. Menopausal status and site of the arterial wave form in the tumor were also important. Transvaginal color-pulse Doppler sonography was a reliable diagnostic method for differentiating ovarian tumors.

D003536 Cystadenocarcinoma A malignant neoplasm derived from glandular epithelium, in which cystic accumulations of retained secretions are formed. The neoplastic cells manifest varying degrees of anaplasia and invasiveness, and local extension and metastases occur. Cystadenocarcinomas develop frequently in the ovaries, where pseudomucinous and serous types are recognized. (Stedman, 25th ed) Cystadenocarcinomas
