This blog presents a case study of someone who was brought to the hospital complaining of abdominal pains. The woman denied engaging in certain activities that could result in risks of sexually transmitted diseases, including those non-sexual ones such as drug use. The common potential causes of STD are not present, prompting doctors to let the patient undergo scanning. A diagnosis was made and the finding is that she has complex ovarian cyst. The article is very useful to women who may have experienced the same thing although they may have a very healthy lifestyle.

Apparently, complex ovarian cysts do not affect only those who are sexually promiscuous.

Diagnosis Giant ovarian serous cystadenomas are extremely rare. This massive serous cystadenoma is one of the largest ever reported in the medical literature. The diagnostic evaluation of a woman with an adnexal mass should begin with a thorough history and physical examination. In most cases, however, the history and physical examination alone are insufficient to make a diagnosis, and ultrasound imaging, with or without laboratory studies, is usually necessary.
