Ovarian Teratomas
16 year old female with abdominal/pelvic pain. POCUS demonstrated bilateral ovarian teratomas. Shown here is a transverse pelvic view at the level of the uterine fundus focused in the L adnexa. A large complex mass with mixed hypoechoic and hyperechoic content is seen in the L adnexa, and a second similar-appearing mass can be partially seen in the R adnexa.

Hematocolpos
14 year old female presenting with acute on chronic abdominal pain. Physical exam revealed gross abdominal distension in the pelvic region. She denied hematuria, dysuria, or sensation of incomplete voiding. No menarche reported.
