ABSTRACT
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most common ovarian malignancy. Because the early lesions are not easy to be found and the advanced cases lack effective treatments, the fatality rate ranks the first among all kinds of gynecological malignant tumors. Pelvic tuberculosis is a specific inflammation of female genitalia. The long incubation period makes the primary tuberculosis foci heal completely, and then presents the clinical "triad" similar to ovarian cancer, namely abdominal distension, ascites and pelvic mass, accompanied by an abnormal increase in serum carbohydrate antigen 125. For the differential diagnosis of the two diseases, imaging examination combined with laboratory examination is widely used in clinical practice, but the evaluation effect of the two diseases is different to some extent. This paper reviews the progress of the significance of imaging examination and laboratory examination in differential diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of EOC and pelvic tuberculosis.
