abstract: Sixteen girls with ovarian tumors treated in the years 1970-1975 in the Oncological Department of the National Research Institute of Mother and Child were studied. 6 tumors were benign ( cystis dermoidalis --5 cases, cystadenoma mucinosum --1 case) and 9 tumors were malignant (dysgerminoma--6 cases, teratoma malignum --3 cases and neoplasma malignum epitheliale --1 case). Middle age of girls with ovarian tumors was 11 years. The commonest signs were abdominal pains, abdominal discomfort and presence of tumor in abdomen. Benign tumors were treated surgically by unilateral adnexectomy in 5 cases and bilateral adnexectomy in 1 case. Surgery and radiotherapy were basic treatment in malignant tumors in 6 cases, 3 cases of malignant tumors were treated by surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, one case of malignant teratoma in stage Ia was treated only surgically. 6 girls with malignant tumors survived without evidence of the disease 33 months and longer. The best results were obtained in dysgerminomas even in stage III of disease. In teratoma malignum group survival were obtained only in the stage Ia of the disease.
