GENERAL: Dermoids or Teratomas? From: SuzieQ (anonymous@obgyn.net) Thu, 12 Mar 2009 01:47:27 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Jess: "MENORRHAGIA: Abnormal Period" Previous message: CLS: "Re: CERVICALBIOPSY: cervical biopsy gone bad" Next in thread: Samir F Abdel Aziz, MD : "Re: GENERAL: Dermoids or Teratomas?" Reply: Samir F Abdel Aziz, MD : "Re: GENERAL: Dermoids or Teratomas?" What is the difference between dermoid and teratomas? I had surgery for dermoid tumors when I was 19. I had 2 on one ovary and 1 on the other. The tumor contained thyroid, hair, calcium (or teeth) skin, and fat. I met with a cancer geneticists this year (I'm 50 now) and he said it wasn't dermoids, but teratomas. (PS--because the doctor that did the surgery when I was 19, just cut out the tumors and re-sectioned my ovaries, I was able to have a child.--thanks Dr. Dorf) -- SuzieQ Next message: Jess: "MENORRHAGIA: Abnormal Period" Previous message: CLS: "Re: CERVICALBIOPSY: cervical biopsy gone bad" Next in thread: Samir F Abdel Aziz, MD : "Re: GENERAL: Dermoids or Teratomas?"
