However, it was not until recently that Xiao Zhang was unable to urinate normally that she drew her mother’s attention. After going to the hospital for a checkup, it was discovered that Xiao Zhang’s kidneys had been compressed by a teratoma on her ovaries that was more than 20 centimeters in diameter, leading to kidney failure.
Second, post-operative does not pay attention to chemotherapy, 25-year-old girl tumor metastasis
25-year-old Xiao Jin unintentionally found a mass in her abdomen early last year, but did not go to the hospital for examination because she did not have any discomfort.

She was diagnosed with immature teratoma of the ovary. The doctor recommended 6-8 surgeries to cure the condition, but she thought she would be fine after 3 surgeries, so she did not continue the treatment.
Recently, when she went for a review, she found that the tumor had metastasized extensively in the abdominal cavity, compressing the liver, with patches of carpet-rolling adhesions and many foci of 2 cm to 6 cm in diameter in the peritoneum behind the uterus, making the situation very dangerous.
In the end, the doctor made a detailed plan for her to preserve the ovarian function and prepare for the subsequent chemotherapy, and Xiao Jin will be discharged from the hospital recently.
