Can The Complex Cyst Be Ovarian Cancer?

Hi I have had an ultra sound scan which shows I have a 5 x 5.7 cm cyst. It contains miltiple internal spectations several of these marginally thickened. This type of complex cyst can potentially be neoplasticism with a slightly increased risk at the boarderline size. I am 45 years old. I had cervical cAncer when I was 24 years old; hysterectomy although Fallopian tubes and ovaries where left....I also had radiotherapy. I have HPV too. Do you think I have ovarian cancer?

Hello

Your findings may suggest complex ovarian cyst.
Complex cysts may be due to both benign or malignant reasons.
Generally complex ovarian cysts are due to benign causes and it may require follow up ultrasound only.
Up to 3-4 cm cysts respond well and it may disappear in follow up ultrasound.
You may need further work-up like CA-125 estimation.It will idea about malignancy.
If size of cysts increases or there are associated complications then you may need CT scan of pelvis.

Treatment depend upon findings.
