Experts propose a method for diagnosing ovarian cysts

Ovarian cysts are a common gynecological disease. It is necessary for everyone to learn more about ovarian cysts. Now, let the experts introduce to you what are the diagnostic methods of ovarian cysts. I hope it can help you better understand the diagnostic methods of ovarian cysts.

1. Clinical signs: A preliminary diagnosis can be made based on the patient's age, medical history, and physical signs, and an estimate can be made as to whether the disease is benign or malignant. When the diagnosis is difficult, further auxiliary examinations should be performed. This is the diagnostic method for ovarian cysts.

2. Ultrasound examination: It is of great significance for the diagnosis of ovarian tumors. It can detect the location, size, shape and nature of the tumor, indicate whether the tumor is cystic or solid, benign or malignant, and distinguish it from other diseases. The clinical diagnosis coincidence rate is 90%. However, solid tumors with a diameter of 1 to 2 cm are not easy to detect.

3. Radiological diagnosis: The diagnosis of ovarian cysts can be assisted by abdominal plain film, intravenous pyelography, barium swallow examination, lymph node angiography, etc. Computerized tomography (CT) can distinguish between benign and malignant tumors, diagnose pelvic masses with intestinal obstruction, and show liver, lung and retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis.

4. Cytological examination: As a vault puncture, ascites can be aspirated for cytological examination. During laparoscopy or laparotomy, fluid can be aspirated from the rectouterine pouch at the same time, which has a high accuracy rate in diagnosing malignant tumors.

5. Laparoscopy: It can directly see the general condition of the tumor, observe the entire pelvic and abdominal cavity, perform multiple biopsies at suspicious sites and absorb peritoneal fluid for cytological examination to confirm the diagnosis and postoperative monitoring. However, it is contraindicated for patients with huge or adhesive tumors, and retroperitoneal lymph nodes cannot be observed, which is a disadvantage.

6. Tumor markers: Ovarian tumors, like other tumors, 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, indicating the presence of a certain tumor in the body. This is also the diagnostic method for ovarian cysts.

Through the above introduction, do you have some understanding of the diagnosis method of ovarian cysts? The above simple introduction hopes to be helpful to everyone. Here, I also wish that patients with ovarian cysts can be treated and recovered as soon as possible.
