Patient's question:
Hello, Professor Zhou, my mother is 66 years old this year. She has had difficulty urinating since last year, wanting to urinate but unable to do so. During a B examination at the county people's hospital, it was found that there were foreign bodies in the uterine appendages. This year, during a color Doppler ultrasound examination at the municipal people's hospital, it was found that there was a slightly strong echo mass in the right adnexal region, and the result was a teratoma, measuring 2.6x2.6 cm. The elderly also has pain in both legs. Could you please ask Professor Zhou, is this disease dangerous? How is it treated?Doctor's answer:
Generally, surgical treatment is the best approach, as medication alone is not very effective. It is recommended to seek surgical treatment at a hospital. Pay attention to postoperative care to prevent infection. It will gradually improve. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
