Case Discussion
Ovarian mature cystic teratoma is a common ovarian neoplasm in females with rich fat content. A Rokitansky nodule is seen as focal mural thickening, round structure protruding into the cystic lumen, a bridging tissue across the cyst, a cystic structure or sometimes only tooth. A Rokitansky nodule is noted in this case as round soft tissue nodule and tooth like calcification (within the larger cyst). This appearance is characteristic of ovarian mature cystic teratoma.
