Preoperative assessment of unilocular adnexal cysts by transvaginal ultrasonography: a comparison between ultrasonographic morphologic imaging and histopathologic diagnosis
Article Abstract:
Ovarian cysts that have no solid parts or papillary formations on an ultrasound scan are probably not malignant and can be followed up with periodic ultrasound scans. Cysts that have solid parts or papillary formations have a higher risk of becoming malignant.
