Question 1

there is 2.2 x 0.9 x 1.2 cm complex cysts with internal echoes and septation in the right ovary. what does the echos and septation mean???? thank you?

Accepted Answer

: A complex ovarian cyst can have multiple  adjacent sacs separated by tissue walls (septations). Picture a peeled orange, where each slice is separated by its own skin. These cysts are commonly filled with fluid. The thicker the fluid (blood or pus are just some examples), the more it produces echoes on ultrasound.  Watery fluid like serum tends to not be echoic.

Question 2

what is an hemorhagic cyst with internal echoes?

Accepted Answer

Hemorrhagic cyst: To present the spectrum of sonographic findings associated with hemorrhagic ovarian
cysts. Experience with making specific and correct diagnosis of hemorrhagic cysts with the
use of sonography was reviewed, and the spectrum of sonographic findings was identified.Endovaginal sonography facilitated excellent visualization of internal architectural details of an adnexal
mass, which enabled specific diagnosis of hemorrhagic cysts instead of other adnexal massesA hemorrhagic cyst is a common and important entity to recognize and diagnose correctly,
and because it can be confused with more ominous conditions, it is important to recognize its
specific diagnostic patterns

Question 3

what are internal echos in a cyst?

Accepted Answer

Internal echoes: It means that the fluid is not homogenous.  When the ultrasound beam passes thru fluid(or anything), a part of it bounces back or 'echoes' if it encounters something else.  It is works exactly like sonar works over a body of water.  So internal echoes in cyst fluid could be due to debris or blood mixed in with the fluid, or other things.

Question 4

what does low level internel echos inside cysts on the ovaries mean

Accepted Answer

Not simple: Simple cysts have no echoes and complicated cysts have high level echoes. Low level echoes means cysts that are less complex but not simple. These cysts need more aggressive treatment and confirmation that they resolve.

Question 5

what does it mean in tvs it's said right ovary has cystic area filled with internal echoes measuring 1.7*1.0 cm?

Accepted Answer

Doctor follow up: Radiologic studies must be interpreted in the proper clinical context meaning that the doctor who ordered the test and has all in the information must go over the results with you. Otherwise the interpretation is incomplete. This reports says there is a very small cyst in the right ovary that is not a simple fluid filled cyst. The clinical significance must be addressed by the ordering doctor

Question 6

on my notes, it says "the left ovary contains a 32x25x34mm cyst with internal echos consistent with haemorrhaging cyst" 
will this hurt the baby?

Accepted Answer

Should be okay: Followup ultrasounds as recommended by your doctor. The placenta takes over for hormone production, around 8 - 10 weeks of the pregnancy.

Question 7

5.1 complex cyst on ovary with septations and internal echos but avascular. i'm only 26 should i be scared about this?dr mentioned blood cyst maybe?

Accepted Answer

Complex cyst: Some complex cysts require surgical removal. Some are simple cysts that are collapsing giving them to complex appearance. These can be monitored to confirm resolution without treatment. Ask you doctor to explain the sonogram findings and discuss your treatment options.

Question 8

i've had multiple bilateral simple renal cysts for a few years. recent ultrasound shows internal echoes in one of them. can simple cyst turn complex?

Accepted Answer

Yes: A simple cyst can become more complex if bleeding or infection occurs within it.  Rarely, intracystic malignancy can occur.  If it is just some low level echoes, it is probably nothing to worry about. If there are multiple renal cysts, it is not uncommon for one or two to have some internal echoes.  If there are no suspicious features, sometimes they are ignored, followed with serial US, or  f/uCT

Question 9

larger of 2 cysts is 21x19 with internal echoes indicating that it is complex.  what does that mean and does it sound or mean cancer?

Accepted Answer

Ask your physician: The dr who ordered or did the test needs to interpret the findings for you. A specialist here might help, but you still need to ask your dr. Don't jump to the conclusion of cancer - cysts can vary in type - not only cancers. Your doctor will suggest the next steps -A full interpretation of results and a Tx plan are part of your medical care. Ask until you understand.
