1. Benign neoplasm of ovary

난소에는 다양한 종류의 종양이 발생할 수 있는데 크게 암에 해당하는 악성 종양과 암이 아닌 양성 종양으로 나누어볼 수 있다. 즉, 난소의 양성 종양이란 암이 아닌 형태의 종양을 의미하며 난소의 표면이나 난소 내 직경 2.5cm 이상의 액체를 함유한 1개 이상의 신생물이 10일 이상 존재하는 것을 말한다. 난소 양성종양의 원인은 아직 정확히 밝혀진 바가 없으나 지속적인 배란이나 외부 자극에 의해 낭종 발생이 유발된다는 가설이 가장 유력하다. 크기가 직경 7~8cm 이상으로 커지기 전에는 무증상인 경우가 많지만, 크기가 점점 커지면 주위의 장기를 압박하여 다양한 증상이 초래된다. 진단은 주로 증상, 부인과 진찰, 영상기법 등에 의해 이루어지며, 치료는 증상의 유무, 환자의 연령, 종양의 크기, 악성의 가능성 등을 고려하여 결정한다.
2. Functional cyst

비종양성 난소낭종(기능성 난소낭종)은 월경주기와 관련된 호르몬의 영향을 받기 때문에 일반적으로 폐경기 전에 발생하는 양성종양이다. 낭포성 낭종(follicular cyst)은 성숙판 난포가 파열하지 않았거나 배란 후 성숙 난포액이 흡수되지 않아 발생하며, 황체 낭종(corpus luteum cyst)은 과다한 프로게스테론 분비로 인해 황체가 퇴화하지 못하고 낭종화 또는 출혈을 동반한 것이다. 루테인 낭종(lutein cyst)은 난소가 융모생식샘자극호르몬의 과다한 자극을 받을 때 발생한다.
3. Polycystic ovarian disease

다낭성난소증후군(polycystic ovarian disease)은 만성 무배란과 고안드로겐혈증을 특징으로 하는 가임기 여성의 4~8% 정도의 유병율을 보이는 가장 흔한 내분비계 질환이다. 원인은 시상하부-뇌하수체 부위의 기능이상, 인슐린 분비 및 작용이상, 비만 및 에너지 대사 이상, 유전적 소인 등으로 알려져 있다. 증상으로는 고안드로겐증, 만성 무배란, 다낭성난소 등이 있으며, 진단은 선천성 부신증식증, 안드로겐분비 종양, 쿠싱증후군 등 다른 원인질환을 제외하고 임상적, 생화학적 증상을 만족하는 경우로 한다. 치료는 생활습관 교정, 경구용 복합 피임제나 프로게스테론 사용, 경구용 피임제나 항안드로겐제 등을 통한 고안드로겐 치료 등이 있다.
4. Epithelial ovarian cancer

상피성 난소암(epithelial ovarian cancer)은 가장 흔한 난소암으로, 증상이 뚜렷하지 않아 부인암 중 가장 높은 치사율을 보인다. 진단은 주로 증상, 부인과 진찰, 영상기법 등에 의해 이루어지며, 혈중 종양표지자 검사도 도움이 된다. 그러나 종양표지자는 다른 양성 질환에서도 상승할 수 있어 의학적 해석이 필요하다.
5. Dermoid cyst

유피낭종(dermoid cyst)은 생식세포종양으로 양성낭성기형종(benign cystic teratoma)이며, 어린이에게 흔히 발생한다. 악성 변형은 2% 이하에서 일어나는데 대부분 40세 이상의 여성에서 발생한다. 다른 장기를 압박할 정도로 크지 않다면 특별한 증상이 없는 경우가 많지만, 염전이나 파열되는 경우 급성 통증이 유발될 수 있다.
6. Ovarian fibroma

난소섬유종(ovarian fibroma)은 결합조직에 발생하는 충실성 종양으로 폐경 전기 및 폐경 여성에서 자주 발생한다. 대부분 무증상이지만 크기가 클 경우 복부증대, 골반압통, 복수 등을 동반할 수 있다.
7. Borderline ovarian tumor

난소 및 난관의 경계성 종양은 난소암에 비해 낮은 악성 가능성을 보이며 난소암의 9.2~20%를 차지한다. 폐경전 여성에게 호발하며 30~50세 사이에 주로 발생한다. 치료는 대부분 자궁절제술과 함께 난소,관관절제술을 시행한다.
8. Nursing process

간호과정 적용에서는 자료수집, 간호진단, 간호계획, 간호중재, 간호평가 등의 단계를 거친다. 주요 간호진단으로는 수술과 관련된 급성통증, 수술과 관련된 감염위험성 등이 있다. 간호중재로는 활력징후 측정, 통증 사정 및 관리, 감염 예방을 위한 손씻기 교육, 약물 투여 등이 포함된다.
9. Postoperative care

수술 후 간호에서는 통증 관리, 감염 예방, 활력징후 모니터링, 상처 관리 등이 중요하다. 통증 관리를 위해 진통제 투여, 비약물적 중재(체위변경, 심호흡, 관심전환요법 등) 등을 적용하고, 감염 예방을 위해 손씻기, 수술부위 관찰, 검사 모니터링 등을 수행한다. 또한 활력징후 변화와 수술부위 상태를 지속적으로 관찰한다.
10. Medication management

수술 후 통증 관리를 위해 진통제(Mediaven, Maxibufen, Fenaca 등)가 처방되며, 감염 예방을 위해 항생제(Esomezol) 등이 투여된다. 이때 약물의 용량, 투여 방법, 부작용 등을 환자 및 보호자에게 교육하여 안전한 약물 사용을 도모한다.
11. Patient education

수술 후 간호에서는 환자와 보호자에게 통증 관리, 감염 예방, 상처 관리 등에 대한 교육이 중요하다. 통증 관리를 위해 진통제 사용법, 비약물적 중재 방법 등을 설명하고, 감염 예방을 위해 손씻기 방법을 교육한다. 또한 수술부위 관찰, 활력징후 변화 등을 모니터링하도록 안내한다.

1. Benign neoplasm of ovary

Benign neoplasms of the ovary are non-cancerous growths that originate from the ovarian tissue. These tumors are relatively common and can vary in size, location, and histological type. Many benign ovarian neoplasms are asymptomatic and are often discovered incidentally during routine pelvic examinations or imaging studies. Common types of benign ovarian neoplasms include mature cystic teratomas (dermoid cysts), serous cystadenomas, and mucinous cystadenomas. These tumors generally have a good prognosis and can often be managed conservatively, with surgical removal reserved for larger or symptomatic lesions. Careful monitoring and follow-up are important to ensure timely detection of any potential malignant transformation. Overall, benign ovarian neoplasms are an important consideration in the differential diagnosis of ovarian masses, and their management requires a multidisciplinary approach to ensure optimal patient outcomes.
2. Functional cyst

Functional cysts are a common type of ovarian cyst that develop as a normal part of the menstrual cycle. These cysts are typically small, fluid-filled sacs that form on the surface of the ovary and are usually harmless. Functional cysts can be classified into two main types: follicular cysts and corpus luteum cysts. Follicular cysts develop when the follicle (the sac that contains the egg) fails to rupture and release the egg during ovulation, while corpus luteum cysts form when the ruptured follicle fails to properly regress. Functional cysts are often asymptomatic and resolve spontaneously within one to three menstrual cycles. However, in some cases, they can cause pelvic pain, bloating, or irregular menstrual bleeding. The management of functional cysts typically involves conservative monitoring, with surgical intervention reserved for cases of persistent or symptomatic cysts. Understanding the nature and management of functional cysts is important for healthcare providers to ensure appropriate patient education and timely intervention when necessary.
3. Polycystic ovarian disease

Polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD), also known as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), is a complex endocrine disorder that affects women of reproductive age. It is characterized by the presence of multiple small cysts on the ovaries, as well as hormonal imbalances, such as elevated androgen levels and insulin resistance. The exact cause of PCOD is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic, metabolic, and environmental factors. Symptoms of PCOD can include irregular menstrual cycles, excessive hair growth, acne, and difficulty conceiving. Long-term complications may include an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and endometrial cancer. The management of PCOD typically involves a multifaceted approach, including lifestyle modifications, medication, and in some cases, surgical interventions. Ongoing research and a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of PCOD are crucial for improving the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of this complex condition.
4. Epithelial ovarian cancer

Epithelial ovarian cancer is the most common and aggressive type of ovarian cancer, accounting for the majority of ovarian cancer cases. It originates from the cells that cover the outer surface of the ovary, known as the epithelium. Epithelial ovarian cancer is often asymptomatic in its early stages, making it challenging to detect and diagnose in a timely manner. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, bloating, changes in bowel or bladder habits, and unexplained weight loss. Risk factors for epithelial ovarian cancer include family history, genetic mutations (such as BRCA1 and BRCA2), and certain reproductive factors. Treatment typically involves a combination of surgery and chemotherapy, with the goal of removing as much of the tumor as possible and targeting any remaining cancer cells. Despite advances in treatment, epithelial ovarian cancer remains a significant public health concern due to its high mortality rate, particularly when diagnosed at advanced stages. Ongoing research into early detection, targeted therapies, and improved understanding of the underlying biology of this disease are crucial for improving patient outcomes.
5. Dermoid cyst

Dermoid cysts, also known as mature cystic teratomas, are a type of benign ovarian tumor that contain various types of tissue, including hair, teeth, and sebaceous (oil) glands. These cysts are the most common type of ovarian germ cell tumor and are typically found in women of reproductive age. Dermoid cysts are often asymptomatic and may be discovered incidentally during routine pelvic examinations or imaging studies. However, they can occasionally cause symptoms such as pelvic pain, torsion (twisting) of the ovary, or rupture, leading to chemical peritonitis. The management of dermoid cysts typically involves surgical removal, either through laparoscopic or open procedures, to prevent potential complications and to confirm the benign nature of the lesion. Careful preoperative evaluation and surgical planning are essential to minimize the risk of intraoperative complications and ensure the best possible outcomes for the patient. Overall, dermoid cysts are an important consideration in the differential diagnosis of ovarian masses, and their management requires a multidisciplinary approach to optimize patient care.
6. Ovarian fibroma

Ovarian fibromas are a type of benign ovarian tumor that originates from the connective tissue of the ovary. These tumors are relatively uncommon, accounting for only about 4% of all ovarian neoplasms. Ovarian fibromas are typically solid, firm masses that can vary in size, and they are often asymptomatic. However, in some cases, they may cause symptoms such as pelvic pain, abdominal distension, or a palpable mass. Occasionally, ovarian fibromas can be associated with Meigs' syndrome, a condition characterized by the presence of an ovarian fibroma, ascites (fluid accumulation in the abdomen), and pleural effusion (fluid in the lungs). The management of ovarian fibromas typically involves surgical removal, either through laparoscopic or open procedures, depending on the size and complexity of the tumor. Careful preoperative evaluation and surgical planning are essential to minimize the risk of intraoperative complications and ensure the best possible outcomes for the patient. Overall, ovarian fibromas are an important consideration in the differential diagnosis of solid ovarian masses, and their management requires a multidisciplinary approach to optimize patient care.
7. Borderline ovarian tumor

Borderline ovarian tumors, also known as low malignant potential (LMP) tumors, are a unique category of ovarian neoplasms that exhibit features intermediate between benign and malignant tumors. These tumors are characterized by increased cellular proliferation and nuclear atypia, but they lack the destructive invasion and metastatic potential of frank ovarian carcinomas. Borderline ovarian tumors are relatively uncommon, accounting for approximately 10-20% of all ovarian neoplasms. They typically occur in younger women, often during the reproductive years. Symptoms may include pelvic pain, abdominal distension, or an incidental finding of a pelvic mass. The management of borderline ovarian tumors often involves a combination of surgical removal and close monitoring, as these tumors have a generally favorable prognosis compared to invasive ovarian carcinomas. However, a small subset of borderline tumors may recur or progress to invasive disease, underscoring the importance of long-term follow-up and a multidisciplinary approach to patient care. Ongoing research into the molecular and genetic characteristics of borderline ovarian tumors may help to further refine their diagnosis, treatment, and prognostic assessment.
8. Nursing process

The nursing process is a fundamental framework that guides the delivery of nursing care. It is a systematic, patient-centered approach that involves five key steps: assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. The nursing process allows nurses to gather comprehensive data about a patient's health status, identify nursing diagnoses, develop personalized care plans, implement appropriate interventions, and continuously evaluate the effectiveness of the care provided. This structured approach ensures that nurses deliver holistic, evidence-based care tailored to the unique needs of each patient. By following the nursing process, nurses can effectively identify and address patient problems, promote health and well-being, and achieve optimal patient outcomes. The nursing process is a critical component of nursing practice, as it enables nurses to provide safe, high-quality, and patient-centered care across a variety of healthcare settings.
9. Postoperative care

Postoperative care is a crucial aspect of the patient's surgical journey, as it focuses on the management and monitoring of the patient's recovery after a surgical procedure. The primary goals of postoperative care are to promote healing, prevent complications, manage pain, and facilitate the patient's return to their normal level of function. This care involves a multidisciplinary team, including nurses, physicians, physical therapists, and other healthcare professionals, who work together to develop and implement a comprehensive care plan. Key components of postoperative care include monitoring vital signs, wound care, pain management, early mobilization, and patient education. Nurses play a vital role in postoperative care, as they are responsible for closely monitoring the patient's condition, administering medications, and providing emotional support. Effective postoperative care can significantly improve patient outcomes, reduce the risk of complications, and enhance the overall quality of the patient's surgical experience. Continuous evaluation and improvement of postoperative care practices are essential to ensure the delivery of high-quality, patient-centered care.
10. Medication management

Medication management is a critical aspect of healthcare that involves the safe and effective use of medications to optimize patient outcomes. It encompasses a range of activities, including medication selection, dosing, administration, monitoring, and education. Effective medication management requires a collaborative effort among healthcare providers, including physicians, pharmacists, nurses, and other allied health professionals. Key components of medication management include conducting comprehensive medication reviews, identifying and resolving potential drug-related problems, providing patient education on proper medication use, and monitoring for adverse drug reactions. Nurses play a crucial role in medication management, as they are responsible for administering medications, monitoring patients for drug-related effects, and communicating with other healthcare providers to ensure the safe and appropriate use of medications. Proper medication management is essential for preventing medication errors, reducing adverse drug events, and improving patient safety and overall health outcomes. Ongoing education, evidence-based practices, and the use of technology can further enhance the effectiveness of medication management in healthcare settings.
11. Patient education

Patient education is a fundamental aspect of healthcare that empowers patients to actively participate in their own care and improve their health outcomes. Effective patient education involves providing patients with the knowledge, skills, and resources they need to understand their health conditions, manage their symptoms, and make informed decisions about their care. Nurses play a crucial role in patient education, as they are often the healthcare providers who have the most frequent and direct interactions with patients. Patient education can cover a wide range of topics, including disease processes, treatment options, medication management, lifestyle modifications, and self-care strategies. By engaging patients in their care and promoting their understanding of their health, patient education can lead to improved adherence to treatment plans, better management of chronic conditions, and enhanced overall well-being. Effective patient education requires a patient-centered approach, tailored to the individual's learning needs, preferences, and cultural background. Ongoing evaluation and refinement of patient education practices are essential to ensure that patients receive the information and support they need to achieve the best possible health outcomes.
