cyst follow-up From: jane (anonymous@obgyn.net) Thu, 14 Dec 2000 20:07:27 -0600 (CST) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Ann: "mass in vagina - what is it?" Previous message: Tina: "Endometrial biopsy ???" Next in thread: R. Daniel Braun, MD: "Re: cyst follow-up" Reply: R. Daniel Braun, MD: "Re: cyst follow-up" I'm 52 and still having periods. Two years ago had a 6cm. benign ovarian tumour removed (along with the ovary). Nine months ago, a pelvic ultrasound showed a 2cm functional cyst according to the report. Because of my past surgery, my doctor recommended repeating the ultrasound three months later. The cyst was still there and only a tiny bit smaller. She says in older women, it's not unusual for a cyst to persist and there's no need to repeat an ultrasound again since both reports say "functional". What's the standard practice for a cyst that persists? Does it depend on the size as well as appearance on the ultrasound whether further follow-up is needed? Thanks.
