A Case Study
Ovarian New Growth (Mucinous Cystadenomacarcinoma)
Presented by:
BSN III BLOCK 6
INTRODUCTION:
The ovary is a pair of reproductive glands in women that are located in the pelvis, one on each side of the uterus. Each ovary is about the size and shape of an almond. The ovaries produce eggs (ova) and female hormones.
Ovarian cysts are closed, sac-like structures within an ovary that contain a liquid, gaseous, or semisolid substance.
Types of Ovarian Cyst
Follicular
Corpus Luteum
Hemorrhagic
Dermoid
Endometriosis
Polycystic ovarian syndrome
Cystadenoma
o A malignant cystic or semisolid tumor most often occurring in the ovary.

III. PATTERNS OF FUNCTIONING
Gordon’s Functional Pattern
Health Perception – Health Management PatternThe patient does not smoke and not an alcohol drinker. She does not feel any symptoms until she noticed enlargement of her abdomen followed by weight loss and that is the time she decided to consult it with the Gynecologist and undergone different laboratory exams and was advised to undergo laparotomy.
Nutrition – Metabolic PatternBefore admission, the patient eats more on vegetables, meat and fruits. After the operation, the patient was placed NPO for 1 day then take general fluids with crackers as diet. IVF of D5NSS 1L x 60cc/hour and hooked for the second bottle.

EliminationWhen the patient is not diagnosed with ovarian cyst, she eliminates 2-3 times a day. She drinks 6 glasses of water everyday and urinates regularly. When she was hospitalized, she has indwelling Foley catheter with 30 cc/hour dark yellow urine and she does not defecate even once for 3 days.
Activity – Exercise PatternShe spends her time taking care of her grandchildren and their piggery business as a form of exercise. After the operation, she was advised to have complete bed rest.
Sleep – Rest PatternWhen the patient was not diagnosed with ovarian cyst, she sleeps 6 hours a day. She has a good quantity of sleep, but when she was hospitalized she sleeps irregularly because of the pain on the incision site and also because of fever.
Cognitive – Perceptual Pattern Our patient is very cooperative and answers all the questions asked to her without any confusion.
Self- Perception and Self Concept PatternShe still manages to smile and have a strong determination to cope up with her condition. She gets all the support from her family.
Coping- Stress Tolerance PatternWhen patient encounters big problems she handles it by talking things over to her husband. She also has determination to solve any problems.
Role Relationship PatternOur patient is with her husband and 4 children. She is 50 years old and a housewife focusing on their piggery. Her family was extended and very close to their neighbors.
Sexuality – Reproductive PatternOur patient is not sexually active anymore because of her age and condition. She is still menstruating and her last menstrual period was October 1, 2010. She has an irregular menstrual cycle. At the age of 11 years old, she began menstruating. Obstetric history G4 P4.
Value Belief PatternShe is Roman Catholic and attends mass every Sunday. She also believes in “medico” or “albularios”. Before she consulted a Gynecologist, she went first to medico and she was advised to take “pito-pito” as a medication.

FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS
Organ Functions
1. Vagina a. Passageway of menstrual flowb. Female organ for coitus; receives male penisc. Passageway for the fetus during birth
2. Uterusa. Houses and nourishes fetus until sufficiently mature to function outside the mother’s bodyb. Uterine muscles propels fetus outside.
3. Fallopian Tube a. Provides passageway for ovum as it travels from ovary to uterus.b. Site of Fertilization.
4. Ovariesa. Endocrine glands that secrete estrogen and progesterone.b. Contain ova within follicles for maturation during the woman’s reproductive life.

Mucinous Cystadenocarcinoma: A malignant cystic or semisolid tumor most often occurring in the ovary. Rarely, one is solid. This tumor may develop from a mucinous cystadenoma, or it may be malignant at the onset. The cysts are lined with tall columnar epithelial cells; in others, the epithelium consists of many layers of cells that have lost normal structure entirely. In the more undifferentiated tumors, one may see sheets and nests of tumor cells that have very little resemblance to the parent structure.
X. LIST OF PRIORITIZED NURSING PROBLEMS (Based on Gordon’s Functional Health Pattern)
Nursing Diagnosis Reason for Prioritizationi. Pain related to post-op
procedureBecause Nursing care focus first on pain management
ii. Hyperthermia related to medication
Second priority in GFHP and signifies that there is something wrong from within.
iii. Constipation related to abdominal muscle weakness
Third priority in GFHP
iv. Altered Sleeping Pattern related to environmental changes
Fifth priority in GFHP. An individual needs adequate sleep pattern in order to renew her strength.

XII. DISCHARGE PLAN
Nursing care has a significant impact on the patient’s body recover. Often, many body systems are impaired as a result of a laparotomy and conscientious care and timely interventions can prevent debilitating complications. Nursing interventions focus on the whole person.
Medication a) Instruct the family members how to administer such medication prescribed. b) Teach client what to do to lessen the side effects of the drugs. c) Describe the importance of regularly taking of prescribed medications d) Instruct the family to continue with follow up medical care e) Advise the family not to miss the intake of medications given by the patient’s
physician upon discharge.
Environmental & Exercise Maintain a quiet, pleasant, environment to promote relaxation.(Provide clean and
comfortable environment.) Encourage client to continue deep breathing exercises. Provide splint such as
pillow to secure the incision site. This is to promote circulation of blood,
relaxation also. Avoid strenuous exercise heavy lifting, and sexual intercourse.
Treatment Continue home medications. For the follow-up check-up repeat, Encourage the family to let the patient to take multivitamins for immunity.
Hygiene Teach the patient or the family member on how and how often to clean the
incision site Encourage also family to maintain clean surroundings.
Others
Encourage family for regular diagnostic examination Advised to consult physician if there are any problems or complications
encountered.
Diet Diets as tolerated as much as possible, unless contraindicated Increase intake of high fiber diet to avoid constipation. Increase fluid intake
Sexual and Spiritual supporting religious practices assisting clients with prayer referring client for spiritual counseling no sexual intercourse up to the time of the next follow-up check up.
In addition to providing physical care, we should encourage patient to verbalize any questions pertinent to condition for further evaluation and follow up of the disease.
