Yes: Ovarian cancers can be and often are cystic. However, you should discuss this with your doctor as small cysts with hemorrhage are far commoner than ovarian cancers. In the mean time you may consult this site for information on this topic. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/ovarian-cancer/basics/definition/CON-20028096

Ultrasound says: "16 mm small hemorrhagic cyst on right ovary with free anechogenic fluid near it. No follow-up necessary". Does that mean it's not malignant or ovarian cancer? What made the doc say "no follow up necessary"? Will it grow bigger?
