Left adnexal anechoia means there is no echo in the adnexal area. Generally, the possibility of ovarian cyst can be considered. At this time, further examination can be carried out and then a diagnosis can be made. Ovarian cyst is a relatively common gynecological disease and it is quite harmful to women's health. According to the specific symptoms, corresponding methods can be taken for treatment. In daily life, good conditioning is also important. Ovarian Cyst Diagnosis The diagnosis of ovarian cysts often varies in difficulty depending on the size and characteristics of the tumor. When taking a detailed medical history, attention should be paid not only to the reproductive organs, but also to the general condition and the relevant medical history of other important organs. Combining clinical manifestations with physical examinations, in addition to paying attention to the characteristics of the tumor itself, the general condition should also be understood. Therefore, not only gynecological examinations, but also general examinations, especially abdominal examinations, are extremely important. If necessary, other auxiliary diagnostic methods should be used, and a correct diagnosis can only be obtained after a comprehensive analysis of the medical history. Patients with ovarian cysts may have a history of abdominal masses. Through abdominal palpation and bimanual examination, the boundaries and mobility of the uterus and the mass can usually be determined. Inspection method Pregnancy test, gastroscopy, fiber colonoscopy, color Doppler ultrasound, MRI, serum tumor markers, etc., and in some special cases, abdominal puncture, laparoscopy, laparotomy, etc. 1. Laparoscopic examination can directly see the general condition of the tumor and observe the entire pelvic and abdominal cavity. Multiple biopsies can be performed at suspicious sites and abdominal fluid can be absorbed for cytological examination to confirm the diagnosis and postoperative monitoring. However, it is contraindicated for patients with huge or adhesive masses, and the retroperitoneal lymph nodes cannot be observed. 2. Radiological diagnosis MRI, CT, etc. are helpful in diagnosing tumor metastasis to the liver, lungs, and retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Abdominal radiographs can aid in the diagnosis of intestinal obstruction. 3. Secondly, if the cyst is a malignant ovarian tumor, like other tumors, it can produce and release a variety of products such as antigens, hormones and enzymes. These substances can be detected in the patient's serum through immunological, biochemical and other methods. They are called tumor markers and indicate the presence of a certain tumor in the body. (1) The antigen marker CA125 is a relatively sensitive tumor marker for ovarian tumors. AFP is the best tumor marker for endodermal sinus tumor. The AFP value may also be elevated in immature teratomas. The increase in AFP often precedes clinical signs, and it is of great significance in diagnosis and monitoring. (2) The hormone marker human chorionic gonadotropin β-subunit (β-hCG) is a highly specific marker for gestational trophoblastic disease, and its serum concentration is often elevated in patients with ovarian choriocarcinoma. Estrogen levels are elevated in patients with granulosa cell tumors and theca cell tumors. 30% of patients with testicular blastoma have increased urinary 17-ketosteroid excretion. (3) The excretion of enzyme marker/lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is increased in patients with ovarian malignant tumors. |
