Abstract:
Associations between neuropsychotic changes and oncologic disease are often described as late-onset symptoms, secondary to the instituted treatment. However, neurocognitive symptoms as a clinical manifestation of adnexal tumors are still little discussed, despite the importance of these in the gynecology practice. In this article, we present a case of adnexal mass whose first clinical manifestations were neuropsychiatric alterations. Such changes led the patient to seek our health service, and after diagnosis and treatment of the ovarian mass, the patient presented remission of the symptoms.
