I recently had an mri of my pelvis for pain that ive had for a few years now. the results said that my cecum is low lying. my cecal wall appears relatively thick, but that there is no evidence of edema in the adjacent tissues. what could that mean?

I'll translate the reading as best I can, though it won't diagnose the cause of pain. The cecum (first part of colon that the small intestine empties into), lies low. This may be just normal variation. Though the wall is "relatively" thick, sometimes you can see this if it's not distended. It's more of a descriptive term. Edema (fluid) in wall, would suggest inflammation, though it's not seen.
