Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Left waist pain for over a year, recently two weeks right abdominal pain sometimes?Current general condition: Abdominal pain also hurts when walking.
Medical history: History of pelvic effusion.
Previous diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes: Ultrasound detected a 3.02.0 CM cyst in the right ovary. Antibiotics were administered, but there was no significant improvement. This cyst is benign.
Doctor's answer:
Hello: The only treatment for ovarian tumors is surgical removal. For cysts with a diameter of less than 5 to 6 cm, observation for 3 to 6 months is recommended. If the cyst continues to grow, or if the tumor has a diameter of less than 5 cm but is solid, surgical removal should be performed. For children and young, nulliparous patients, unilateral oophorectomy or unilateral adnexectomy is often adopted. If the bilateral ovarian tumors are benign, the doctor may consider ovarian cystectomy to preserve as much ovarian tissue as possible, thereby maintaining menstrual and fertility functions. Laparoscopic surgery has smaller abdominal incisions and a faster recovery.
