Good Morning,
I've been trying to post for a week but its always full am SO happy to be able to ask you this question. I keep researching about cysts and stuff. I keep finding that complex thick walled cysts are almost always bad and are more prone to be cancerous. I am beside myself with worry and have worked myself into a lather, have lost about 10lbs from being too worried to eat. My doc gave me the ca-125 that came back normal at 31 and then the OVA -1 which came back at 4.2 which is normal for premenopausal women. My scheduled repeat sono is this coming week...I am just wondering what your thought on the odds of this cyst being cancerous or something that will require surgery and basically am wondering if the info I have been seeing is true about thick walled cysts.
Thank you so very, very much for your time, as I know you are incredibly busy! Below is the report from the sono I had in August (side note when they wrote the report they had my lmp as 8/16/2001)
Exam: Transabdominal and transvaglnal sonographic imaging of the pelvis
9/7/2011
Findings: Uterus measures 8.9 x 5.8 x 8.1 cm and is normal in size, Small
Fibroid noted anteriorly in the uterus and subserosal in location measuring 2 x
1.3 x 1.7 cm, Uterus is anteverted. It makes visualization of the endometrial
stripe quite difficult. It appears to be somewhat thickened measuring 1.8 cm in
thickness. (The patient's last menstrual period was 8/16/2011),
Right ovary was normal measuring 5.3 x 1.5 x 2.1 centimeters with a volume of 5.9 millimiters.
Left ovary measures 3.9 x 2.6 x 1.8 cm with a volume of 9.3 mL, Complex
thick-walled cystic appearing area measuring 2.5 x 2.4 x 2.1 cm noted in the
left ovary, Recommend follow-up sonogram in approximately 6 weeks to ensure
resolution.
Impression:
Probable thickened endometrium with small fibroid noted in the uterus.
Complex appearing cystic area with thick wall noted in the left ovary, Recommend
Follow-up sonogram in 6 weeks to ensure resolution.
