Patient's question:
Clinical Description: Ultrasound Findings: The uterus is centrally located, with a body size of approximately 4.43.44.0 cm, showing a regular shape. The endometrium is not thick. The endometrial cavity line is clear, with no obvious abnormalities observed in the uterine cavity. CDFI shows no abnormal blood flow signals inside. Right ovary: 2.21.9 cm Left ovary: not visible No abnormalities were detected in the bilateral adnexal regions. The posterior fornix of the uterus was explored, revealing a fluid-filled dark area measuring 2.21.9 cm.Doctor's answer:
Pelvic effusion is caused by inflammation, specifically due to exudation from chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. In a few cases, it may be caused by ectopic pregnancy rupture, corpus luteum rupture, pelvic abscess, chocolate cysts, or ovarian cancer. Those resulting from acute or chronic pelvic inflammatory disease often accompany lower abdominal pain (unilateral or bilateral) and lumbosacral pain.How is pelvic effusion treated? What are the symptoms of pelvic effusion? The specific cause of the effusion is inflammatory serous exudation that the body cannot absorb, gradually accumulating in the body. The location of pelvic effusion is commonly found in lower pelvic areas such as the rectouterine pouch. To achieve effective treatment, it is essential to first identify the cause of the effusion. Generally, ultrasound can detect whether pelvic effusion still exists, and the timing of follow-up depends on your treatment progress.
