A member asked:
Why did my ovarian dermoid cyst, containing fat, all of a sudden develop a cystic area?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fluid egress: When fluid in the cyst is produced by the solid dermoid components it will cause a rapid growth of the entire ovarian cyst as it is contained within the ovary.
