Question 1

what is a paraovarian cyst?

Accepted Answer

Paraovarian cyst: They are cyst that are next to your ovary or fallopian tube. They are embryological remnants.  I hope that helps.

Question 2

i have a paraovarian cyst that has a mural echcogenic nodule, is this serious? it's about 2cm and the nodule is 7mm.

Accepted Answer

Keep an eye on it: The possibility (differential diagnosis) and clinical implications for ovarian cysts change with a woman's age. For someone young the nodule is more likely benign (like part of a dermoid cyst) than when someone is older where such a nodule can make it more worrisome for cancer, though nothing is 100%.
Also, the size of the cyst (if &gt;4-5cm) can be associated with torsion (surgical emergency)

Question 3

is f/u ultrasound indicated for a 1 cm incidentally found paraovarian cyst? dr said it isn't and doesn't recommend another u/s.

Accepted Answer

Not usually: Almost all paraovarian cysts are benign especially small ones like this.

Question 4

saw on u/s report from two years ago i had 1 cm paraovarian cyst.i have since had a baby and u/s never showed anything. did it disappear?

Accepted Answer

If it wasn't: present on subsequent ultrasounds, it likely resolved.

Question 5

i have total correction of tetralogy of phallot and paraovarian cyst. i becoming fatty to fattest although not taking much food.  what i do now?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: You should be evaluated by your physician. Thyroid problems can cause the kinds of symptoms you are having but sometimes it's because you are eating more calories than your body needs.  I would suggest logging everything you eat for a week and take it to your doctor's visit. The daily plate is a good calorie tracker website http://www.Livestrong.Com/thedailyplate/.

Question 6

can a paraovarian cyst 4 cm in size cause your period to be late?

Accepted Answer

Not a paraovarian : Cyst , but an ovarian cyst can, 4 cm is big for a paraovarian cyst which can cause other problems, please see your gyn for evaluation of your late cycle and the cyst.

Question 7

i had an paraovarian cyst removed this year in september and yesterday when i had sex for the first time after my surgery it was very painful. worried?

Accepted Answer

Check with MD: You need to check with your md to be certain that the cyst has not returned via sonography. Painful sex in the absence of the cyst may be fear of pain, so make sure that everything is O.K. First then address the emotional fear by being "ready" for sex before actual intercourse takes place with penetration.

Question 8

what is a complex paraovarian cyst 1.4cm? is this bad?

Accepted Answer

Obgyn: Most ovarian cysts resolve on their own. A complex cyst needs evaluation by an obgyn so that each case and the management can be individualized. Your obgyn can determine if surgery is needed.

Question 9

what does a complex paraovarian cyst with irregularities in the wall mean? it measures 4.2 cm and requires close clinical correlation?

Accepted Answer

Complex cyst ?'s: A paraovarian cyst which is "complex" may arise from Fallopian tube tissue, and may need surveillance and possible biopsy to determine the clinical significance and future therapy.  "Complexity" can indicate cellular activity within the cystic structure, so microscopic identification may be necessary.

Question 10

1 cm paraovarian cyst incidentally found on u/s. is this a simple cyst? all it said was  '1 x1cm paraovarian cyst'. f/u not needed, apparently.

Accepted Answer

Parovarian Cyst: A parovarian cyst is a tiny fluid-filled sac  found in 3-4% of women incidentally  for other reasons. Depending on whether the cyst is attached to the top of the fallopian tube (the fimbria) or nearby, the cyst may be called a "hydatid cyst of morgagni [see image attached]*" or, simply, a "paratubal cyst."
