Patient's question:
I have been treated for ovarian cysts, and I had a follow-up check-up at the hospital a few days ago. I noticed strong echoes. Is a strong echo from an ovarian cyst a sign of cancer?Doctor's answer:
If you carefully check the ultrasound suggesting an ovarian cyst, it is mainly divided into physiological cysts and pathological cysts. If the ultrasound indicates a strong echo of the ovarian cyst, this situation is considered a pathological cyst, meaning the possibility of fibrotic cyst is high. For diagnosis, surgical removal and pathological examination are required to confirm the condition. At the same time, it is necessary to carefully check tumor markers such as CA125, CA193 to rule out the possibility of malignancy.
