Abstract

The sea anemone sign is a radiologic sign seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies that indicates the morphological development of serous borderline ovarian tumors (SBOTs), as papillary projections originating from the wall of the cystic lesion. The presence of T2 hypointense fibrous stroma in the center of the papilla is a helpful tip in the diagnosis of SBOTs. Those projections might also be assumed to have a frond-like appearance which can be seen as branching papillary projections, especially on T2-weighted imaging.

The term “sea anemone” sign is described by Tanaka et al. who deemed it as a “hallmark” feature of surface SBOTs.

我看到了 "海葵 "的标志：边缘性卵巢肿瘤的浮肿面孔

海葵征是磁共振成像（MRI）研究中发现的一种放射学征象，表明浆液性边界卵巢肿瘤（SBOTs）的形态学发展，表现为源自囊性病变壁的乳头状突起。乳头中心出现 T2 低密度纤维基质有助于诊断 SBOT。Tanaka等人将 "海葵 "征描述为表面SBOT的 "标志性 "特征。
