My surgery is scheduled for May 20th for 2 cysts removed from right adnexal and ovary. Dr said she would not know if we can save the ovary or the tube until she is inside. My dr. notes say:
Within the right adnexa the right ovary is enlarged. Ovarian tissue measures 4.5 x 3.0 x 5.1 cm. A peripherally enhancing low-attenuation lesion measures 2 cm and is present inferiorly. Posteriorly there is a simple-appearing low-attenuation lesion
measuring 3.9 x 3.1 cm. The right ovary is 3 cm and normal size. Uterus is normal size. Distal colon is unremarkable. There is no free fluid.
Impression:
1. Diverticulitis involving the cecum. Normal appendix. No abscess.
2. Enlarged right ovary with enhancing cyst and another almost 4 cm simple cyst. Followup pelvic ultrasound is suggested in 6-12 weeks.
3. Right adrenal mass, 2.3 cm. This is indeterminate on the CT scan. In a young patient, this is likely benign. Characteristics can be confirmed with dedicated MRI.
4. 1.7 cm cyst or cystic lesion in the tail of pancreas. Followup or dedicated MRI could be done for further characterization.
In the right adrenal gland, there is a 2.2 x 2 cm mass with intermediate Hounsfield units. Left adrenal gland is normal.
I love this site. I have been studying all your stories. They are so helpful and I have made my own little diary with little helpful notes you have all given. I am so scared of the pain that is waiting for me. I'm scared they will not be able to save my ovary or fallopian tube, I am 39 with no children, but still had hope there was a husband for me out there and I always wanted a baby. But reading your stories I know i will be fine in the end no matter what the outcome may be. Its nice to know there are others out there just like you with the same emotions and fears.
