The authors present their experience in detecting volume and echostructure alterations of the ovary in 14,525 women examined echographically and clinically. They analyzed 499 adnexal tumors and observed after clinical follow-up and echography that 60.6% of the cystic-septa tumors had involuted spontaneously. Percentage of spontaneous resolution was higher in small-diameter tumors, avoiding unnecessary surgery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
