13 year old with a ovarian Mass
My 13 year was rushed to the hospital in pain and they thought it could be the apendix but when the results returned of the CAT Scan they discovered a mass on her right overy that is 4.5cm and later they did an ultrasound I guess to confirm the findings in the CAT Scan, they also found s cyst 1.2 cm on her right Kidney. The doctor explained to me that it is considered a mass because it is dark and a cyst is clear with liquid. My daughter is so young and I have appointments with 3 different Gyno because the one that saw her at the ER said that the ovary would have to be removed I am afraid for my daughter and want to know if removing the ovary is the only option? Please any feed backs on this will be great.
No offense to those in the ER, but they are jacks of all trades and masters of none sometimes. They found something but they could be quite wrong about what it is exactly. I would try to remain calm until you get more expert advice from a gynecologist.
