title: [Epidemiology of presumed benign ovarian tumors].
abstract: Ovarian cysts presumed benign can be organic or functional. Their prevalence is estimated between 14 and 18% in postmenopausal women and around 7% in asymptomatic women of childbearing age. Their incidence during pregnancy is between 0.2 and 5% and varies within the term of pregnancy. Ovarian cysts presumed benign have caused nearly 45,000 hospitalizations in France in 2012, bringing the annual risk of hospitalization for a woman residing in France to 1.3‰. Among the risk factors studied in the literature, tamoxifen increases the incidence of ovarian cysts in premenopausal patients and immunosuppressive treatments are associated with a high prevalence of benign ovarian cysts while estrogen contraception reduces the risk of developing functional cysts.
