  • Title: Intraperitoneal rupture of benign cystic ovarian teratoma.
    Author: Waxman M, Boyce JG.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1976 Jul; 48(1 Suppl):9S-13S. PubMed ID: 781571.
    Abstract:
    Three patients are presented with the rare complication of intraperitoneal rupture of a benign cystic ovarian teratoma. Spillage of sebaceous material produces a chemical granulomatous peritonitis which may mimic the metastatic spread of ovarian carcinoma. The importance of a frozen-section examination prior to a definite procedure is stressed.
