Thanks Allen. But perhaps if these get infected (do they?), would your approach be different? Joe.

I know Latha does not agree but I do not think they are ever significant. I ignore them completely.

Since I document my ultrasound exams on SVHS video tape, and narrate the tape as I do the scan, the patient can hear what I am saying, and as soon as they hear the word "cyst" they of course panic, so I always explain that cysts in the cervix are of no significance, almost all women have them, and they have nothing to do with ovarian cysts.

Hi all, I found multiple Nabothian cysts (5 in all) of sizes varying from 5 to 12 mm. in the cervix of this 49 yr. old female patient.] When or at what sizes or appearance are these cysts significant? I have attached an image (transverse section ) of the cervix... dont know if it will come thru.
