A member asked:
I just removed my dermoid cyst on ovary 5 days ago. sent to the lab. after 5 days they called for ihc test. is that bad sign ?

These sort of tests are normally used when there is some ambiguity in the initial evaluation. Since dermoids contain multiple tissue type there are multiple possibilities for malignant change. Most of the time they are just being careful not to overlook anything, and most dermoids are benign.
