A member asked:

Women with complex adnexal mass need to remove the entire ovary for complete pathologic analysis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: A complex ovarian cyst is evaluated based on your age, size of the mass, blood tumor markers, and ultrasound findings. Often the ovary needs to be removed but in some circumstances it can be preserved.
