What Are The Chances Of Complex Cysts Being Cancerous?

My sister had a hysterectomy last Monday for a large fast growing complex cyst. They took her ovaries, uterous, cervix and appendix. They said it went well 3 hours and that it looked good. Frozen section was inconclusive. Her final pathology is expect 10-14 days after surgery (last Monday). How often do inconclusives like this turn out cancerous and why do the final results take so long?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have complex endometrial hyperplasia. With atypia chances of cancer are 64%. If no atypia then chances of cancer are lower. Histopathological report on specimen is the final report. It takes time because of long processing time. Moreover if they want IHC study then it will take extra time. On a average it take 6 to 8 days fod report.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
