Methods This study was done in the Department of Radiology, at Fathima Institute of Medical Sciences, Kadapa, Andhra Pradesh, This study was done from 2014 to 2016. Detailed personal history was taken. A total of thirty cases were studied and the results that were obtained were tabulated. All the statistical analysis was done using the latest SPSS software (2015). California. Results Based on ultra sound features, thirteen cases of benign tumours were cystic, one case was bilocular, three cases were multilocular, No cases of complex or solid masses were recorded in benign tumours in the study. Among the malignant tumours, two cases were cystic, one case was bilocular, four cases were multilocular, four cases were complex and two cases were solid in nature. Nine cases of cystic tumours showed wall thickness less than five mm and four cases of cystic masses showed wall thickness more than five mm.
