title: [Ultrasonographic picture of endometrial tumors of ovaries].
abstract: The retrospective analysis was made of 599 patients with ovarian tumours who underwent operation in Central Hospital of Ministry of Internal Affairs at Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology during 1991-1999. All the patients were examined before operation by transabdominal and/or transvaginal ultrasonic probe. A total of 114 endometriotic masses were diagnosed (20 patients had bilateral masses). We noted 83 (72.8%) unilocular cysts, 23 (20.1%) multilocular cysts and 7 (6.2%) partially solid tumours. The so-called "typically" monolocular round-shaped, smooth-walled endometriotic cyst with diffuse low-level internal echoes was only found in 48%.
