Surgery to remove ovarian tumor weighing nearly 9 kg from 15 year old girl

Previously, H.D.E (15 years old, residing in Ea Tar commune, Cu M'gar district) had symptoms of abdominal pain and difficulty breathing, and was taken by her family to Cu M'gar district Medical Center for examination.

Talking to the doctors, E.'s family said that she had had symptoms of discomfort in her abdomen since she was 10 years old, but she did not feel any pain, so her family did not take her to a medical facility for examination.

After examination, the doctors consulted and diagnosed that H.D.E had a very large ovarian tumor, causing pain and making it difficult for the patient to breathe, so they prescribed surgery to remove the tumor.

On the morning of June 8, H.D.E was taken into the operating room. After more than 1 hour of surgery, doctors removed a tumor measuring 50 x 40 x 30 cm, weighing nearly 9 kg, from the child's body.

Currently, E.'s health is gradually stabilizing and she is being monitored and treated post-operatively at the Department of Reproductive Health Care and Obstetrics of Cu M'gar District Medical Center.

According to Mr. Bui Nam On, ovarian cysts are sacs containing secretions that appear abnormally in or on the surface of the ovaries. The disease can occur at any age, not just in women of reproductive age. Therefore, adult women and children in puberty need to regularly go for early screening for ovarian cysts to avoid dangerous complications that affect reproductive health.
