title: [Neonatal ovarian cysts].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Ovarian cysts are frequently find in fetuses and neonates. The optimal management of neonatal simple ovarian cysts is still a matter of discussion.
  
  
  METHODS
  Authors present four cases of neonatal ovarian cysts treated in Pediatric Surgery Clinic of Medical Academy in Bialystok in the period of 2002-2003. Three girls were managed conservatively--they are still in outpatient care. One girl was managed surgically.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The main aim of treatment is to preserve the ovary. Uncomplicated prenatal ovarian cysts should be treated depending on size and echographic patterns at birth.
