What is pelvic effusion 2.1 and what to do

Pelvic fluid accumulation of 2.1 cm is mostly an abnormal phenomenon, which may be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease, ovarian cyst rupture, ectopic pregnancy rupture, endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, etc. It is recommended to seek medical treatment in time.

1. Pelvic inflammatory disease: including endometritis, salpingitis, fallopian tube, ovarian abscess, pelvic cavity, peritonitis, etc. The bacteria ascend along the genital tract mucosa or spread through the blood circulation and enter the female pelvic cavity, especially after intrauterine operation or sexual life, which can easily lead to genital tract infection. Lower abdominal pain, abnormal secretions, vaginal bleeding, severe systemic symptoms such as fever, headache, loss of appetite, etc. will occur. B-ultrasound examination will reveal a large amount of pelvic effusion. After diagnosis, you need to pay attention to rest, increase nutrition, and give a large amount of antibiotic treatment as prescribed by the doctor, such as cefixime tablets, levofloxacin hydrochloride tablets, metronidazole tablets, etc.

2. Rupture of ovarian cyst: The ovarian cyst is relatively large, with a diameter of more than 5 cm. If it ruptures, the cyst fluid will flow into the female rectouterine pouch, forming pelvic effusion. Patients often have severe pain in one side of the lower abdomen. After discovery, a gynecological examination and B-ultrasound examination are required for diagnosis. After diagnosis, surgical treatment is required.

3. Rupture of ectopic pregnancy: refers to the fertilized egg being implanted in the fallopian tube. Since the fallopian tube is relatively narrow, it is not conducive to the growth and reproduction of the fertilized egg. After it grows to a certain size, it ruptures and bleeds. Blood accumulates in the rectouterine pouch to form pelvic effusion. The patient will have pain in one side of the lower abdomen, accompanied by symptoms of shock. If this phenomenon is found, you need to go to the hospital for a gynecological examination and B-ultrasound examination. If necessary, a posterior fornix puncture is required. If the symptoms are severe, immediate surgical treatment is required.

4. Endometrial cancer: Cancerous tissue invades the pelvic cavity or pelvic lymph nodes, resulting in increased pelvic effusion. B-ultrasound examination reveals a large amount of pelvic effusion, which may even be accompanied by ascites. After diagnosis, surgical treatment is feasible in the early stages. Those who are unable to undergo surgery can undergo tumor-directed radiotherapy or hormone therapy.

5. Ovarian cancer: B-ultrasound examination often reveals substantial masses in the ovaries, and pelvic effusion, and some even have ascites. Malignant cells can be found in the ascites. After diagnosis, surgical treatment can be performed in the early stage, and tumor cell reduction surgery should be performed in the late stage. Chemotherapy is the main auxiliary treatment, which is often used to kill residual cancer foci after surgery and control recurrence; it can also be used to treat recurrent lesions.

Colon cancer and other diseases may also cause pelvic effusion. Once a large amount of pelvic effusion is found, you need to go to the hospital in time to avoid damage to your body.
