Ovarian dermoid cyst with tooth

Discussion:

Ovarian dermoid cysts or mature cystic ovarian teratomas are common ovarian lesions, often found incidentally in females.

They are sometimes associated with ovarian torsion as they can act as a lead point. In this case, the ovaries were otherwise normal with preserved blood flow.

This case illustrates a nice example of the tooth component of the dermoid within the left adnexa from an x-ray several years prior.
