Ovarian Cysts Flashcard Deck - 10 Cards
Flashcard 1: A functional cyst of size 5–10 cm should be followed up with _____ every 3 months while simultaneously checking her CA-125 levels
Answer: USG
Extra: Management of simple/functional ovarian cysts (premenopausal):
- <5 cm: No follow-up needed.
- 5–10 cm: Follow up with USG every 3 months and monitor CA-125 levels.
- >10 cm: Usually requires surgical evaluation (cystectomy/oophorectomy) due to risk of torsion or malignancy.
Note: CA-125 is often elevated in premenopausal women due to benign conditions (endometriosis, PID, etc.), so its specificity is lower.
Flashcard 2: Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a condition characterized by at least 2/3 of the following criteria:- signs of _____- irregular periods (typically oligomenorrhea)- polycystic ovaries on ultrasound
Answer: Hyperandrogenism
Flashcard 3: Class _____ of Mullerian duct anomalies include bicornuate uterus
Answer: IV
Flashcard 4: Which pelvic tumors are more common in female patients with ambiguous genitalia?_____
Answer: Gonadoblastoma
Flashcard 5: A functional cyst of size < 6 cm should be followed up with _____ while simultaneously giving OCPs
Answer: USG
Extra: Functional cysts (follicular, corpus luteum) < 6 cm in diameter are typically managed conservatively with follow-up ultrasound in 6–8 weeks (or after the next menstrual cycle) to check for resolution. OCPs are often prescribed in exam-based protocols to suppress ovulation and prevent the formation of new cysts, although clinical evidence suggests they do not significantly accelerate the resolution of the existing cyst.
