Abstract

Ovarian germ cell tumors are a very diverse histologic group. The most frequent
malignant tumor of this lineage is dysgerminoma, which mainly affects young
women. There are few reports on the particular characteristics on ultrasound, being
included dysgerminoma indistinctly in series of ovarian tumors as a solid mass.
Computed tomography and magnetic resonance have contributed significantly
to the characterization of dysgerminoma. The following is a description of three
cases of dysgerminomas suspected by ultrasound, in order to determine common
characteristics and contrast them with the findings in the literature.
