Remember the huge complex ovarian cyst that I posted last?
Operated on that today and it turned out to be mostly endometriotic with chocolate coloured fluid noted clearly draining out. However, unfortunately, frozen section came out to be borderline/low grade papillary tumour.
So we went ahead with a right salpingo-oophorectomy with peritoneal biopsy with infra colic and supra colic omentectomy and we also put in a right ureteric stent under cystoscopic guidance.
The ACOG recommends prioritising fertility preservation in young females with borderline tumours and hence, we preserved the uterus and the left o***y and fallopian tube.
Will update y’all about the final biopsy reports and how she does on follow up.
Post operative,y she is doing fine.
