Had ovaries removed but scan is showing an ovary
I am a 44yr old with 2 grown children and have had MS for 19yrs. In 2005 I had a bilateral oopherectomy (removal of both ovaries) the pain carried on for a further 3 years. I had a private scan which showed a normal looking left ovary. My histology report from 2005 that there was no recognisable ovary taken from the left hand side. Was my ovary left behind?? My main question is if an ultrasound scan is done is there anything at all that could show up as a normal looking ovary ie: ovarian tissue, scar tissue, I am very worried but more confused. Also noted was that I had a Waltard Cell Nest. Please help I am so confused as to why my US scan is showing I have an ovary.
Hi again, I have been told it is not a remnant but residual, and scans still noting normal looking left ovay :)
I'm not sure how it would show. If it were a remnant I'm not sure how large it would grow back. Do come back and let us know how it goes.
Many thanks in replying, I just need to know that if I am having another scan done and I am once again told I have a normal looking left ovary can I be told for sure as to if this is an ovary or an ovary remnant? can they tell? I will have had this same operation 2 times now and in May 2009 was told that my inside is a real mess in there made even worse by having had the same operation done previously. Thanks again Lisa.
