Talk to your GYN: Your personal GYN can best answer for your specific case, but generally if the cyst is enlarging and causing symptoms by pressing against your colon it may be best treated surgically.  See link for more information on ovarian cysts.

Question 8

what are hepatic cysts located on my liver & should i worry, i have diagnoised with sigmoid colon diverticulosis?

Accepted Answer

No worries...: As a 47 year old american citizen , it is almost guaranteed you'll have sigmoid diverticulosis.  Hepatic cysts means liver cysts, and there's a high probability you were born with them.  Unless they are verified as new, or are symptomatic, there's nothing to worry about.  Good luck.

Question 9

on a ultrasound report. what does it mean to have a collapsed descending colon? 
also should i consult my gynaecologist for a hemorragic ovarian cyst?

Accepted Answer

Choice of words: The descending colon is basically a bag/tube where feces is stored. When you poop it empties &amp; the walls fold in on themselves until more poop moves in. The ovaries occasionally form hemorrhagic cysts. It is not particularly notable or in need of any treatment. Without more information about why a study was done, little can be said.

Question 10

my 30 yr old daughter had colon cancer with a resection. she received chemo for 6 months but has a mass on ovary along with cysts.what is prognosis an?

Accepted Answer

Need more info: Although it can happen, spread of a colon cancer to the ovary  after her resection seems unlikely. Follow up with the cancer specialists and ob/gyn. This also could be new problem in ovary not recurrence. Testing blood levels for tumor markers and further imaging tests are called for.
