in the stroma or in the capsule, producing either an increase or decrease 
in the size of the organ. The veins may be largely dilated. 
What tumors have been seen to occur in the ovary ? 
Fibromata, leiomyomata, sarcomata, carcinomata and adenomata. 
Name the different forms of cysts found in the ovary. 
Cystic adenomata or compound ovarian cysts, follicular cysts, and 
dermoid cysts. 
Describe a compound ovarian cyst. 
This form is made up of a number of compartments (muitilocutar. 
It seems to begin as a glandular or adenomatous growth, and its divi- 
sions are filled with a semi-fluid material. As the cyst increases in 
size other cavities are formed. The stroma of the cystwall is made 
up of a fibrous material lined with cylindrical cells, which by the 
accumulation of fluid may become flattened or degenerated. The fluid 
contents of these cysts may be thick or thin, but is always viscid. In 
the fluid may be found red-blood cells, pus-cells, cylindrical, flattened, 
or polyhedral epithelial cells, well preserved or in a state of fatty degen- 
eration, cholesterin crystals and fat droplets. 
What is a follicular cyst ? 
It is a unilocular cyst formed probably by the dilatation and accum- 
ulation of fluid in a Graafian follicle. The fluid may be serous or 
viscid and turbid. 
What are dermoid cysts ? 
They are cysts, the inner walls of which may be made up of the 
same elements as are found in the skin. They are usually filled with 
a thick, white, greasy material and may contain bits of bone or carti- 
lage or hair. After a time they may become the seat of a calcareous 
degeneration. 
What are parovarian cysts ? 
They are cysts formed in the tubules of the parovarium between the 
peritoneal layers of the broad ligament, and usually are lined with 
cylindrical ciliated cells and filled with a serous fluid.
