Patient's question:
Medical Description: Today is the 14th day of the second lunar month of the transfer year, and I had a colon surgery. Now, both ovaries are enlarged. A PETCT scan shows it might be tumor metastasis, and it is recommended to have surgery. Previous Treatment and Effect: Radical surgery for colon CA. What kind of help do you want: Is surgery the only solution? Are there other good methods?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the size of the ovary is generally about 431 cm, weighing 5-6 grams, and it is grayish-white in color. From puberty, the ovary begins to ovulate. After ovulation, the surface gradually becomes uneven. After menopause, the ovary gradually shrinks, becomes smaller, and becomes harder. In your case, it is considered that observation is possible, and surgery is not necessary. If the cyst diameter is less than 5 cm and there are no clear symptoms, treatment may not be required. It is recommended to have a follow-up examination every 2-3 months. If the cyst is found to grow rapidly during follow-up, it is recommended to surgically remove the cyst and perform a pathological examination. Moreover, the current ovarian tumor may be metastatic. The best approach is surgical treatment followed by chemotherapy to prevent recurrence. Additionally, traditional Chinese medicine can be used to enhance the body's resistance.
