Complex Septated Cyst

[sp0918]

Hi everyone. Six weeks ago I had an ultrasound done and this was the finding:

"The left ovary is enlarged, measuring 6 cm x 5.3 cm x 5.3 cm. Within the left ovary is a complex cystic structure measuring 4.4 x 4.8 x 4.5 cm. Some sepatation is present with half of the cystic structure having either dense internal debris or a somewhat solid component. No color flow is appreciated in this abnormal half of the cystic structure. No other mass or lesion or free fluid is present wihtin the left adnexa. This is a nonspecific finding and both benign and malignat etiologies must be considered. Recommend standard, short interval follow-up ultrasound to documented regression and/or stability."

Should I be worried about this or will it most likely go away on it's own? I have a follow-up ultrasound Thursday. I had a partial hysterectomy in 2000 and precancerous tissue in colon. CA-125 was normal (19.7). On Thursday, will this most likely be gone?  

Thanks for you input.

I suggest you go to the HERS website, HERSfoundation.org and learn about when to worry and when not to remove your organs.  That site and a consultation with Nora saved my organs from removal so far.  TJ

I don't think you should worry but I do think you need to be a little concerned. I for sure am not an expert so I would not venture to guess if it indeed will go away. I think that in this case, I would listen to my doctor.
