What Does This Ultrasound Report Indicate?
Question: Hello sir .. My mother is under treatment of uterus fibroid from last 9 months. She has been taking sevista 30 tablet from last 9 months. Today we do a ultra sound and i have attached the report also. Her ovary was in normal size in last lab report but increases in latest report with cysts. I am attaching the previous report also. Please check these two report with the difference of 3 months only. Please suggest the proper treatment.
Brief Answer:
Nature of ovarian cysts should be evaluated
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
I have reviewed both the reports.
The current ultrasound shows a large cyst in left ovary and a small cyst in the right ovary. The size of the fibroid is almost same in both the reports.
These ovarian cysts are likely to be benign in nature, but very slight chances of malignancy are there considering anechoic nature of right ovarian cyst and presence of cysts in both the ovaries.
I will suggest her to get a Doppler ultrasound to assess the blood flow to the cysts and get a blood levels of CA 125 done to assess the nature of cysts and to get the further management accordingly.
Uterine size and endometrial thickness is normal.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.

should we do immediate surgery to remove uterus and ovary completely?
Brief Answer:
Diagnosis is must before treatmnet
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
It is advisable to assess the nature of the ovarian cyst , whether benign or malignat, before deciding the further treatment.
The treatment for the two types of conditions is different, and hence the confirmed diagnosis is mandatory.
Removal of ovaries and uterus is not the sufficient management, if the ovarian cyst is malignant.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
