- Authors
Fonseca, Eduardo Kaiser Ururahy Nunes; Sameshima, Yoshino Tamaki
- Abstract
The article focuses on daughter cyst signs, or the presence of small cysts along the wall of a major cyst, in the proper characterization of abdominal cystic lesions as ovarian cysts. It states that most abdominal masses in female neonates can be accounted for with ovarian lesions. It mentions the cysts histologically may represent ovarian follicles simulated by maternal hormones which in neonatal cases pass through the placenta.
