What are cystadenomas?

Cystadenoma is a type of ovarian cyst that can be created during the abnormal ovulation process. In a normal monthly cycle, a woman will usually produce one immature egg that is raised by ovarian follicles that are hormonely stimulated to allow the egg to develop. When the egg ripens, this follicle or bag breaks out and releases the egg to pass through the fallopian tubes where it will be fertilized. Cystadenomas occur if the bag does not suffer and releases mature eggs, instead it catches it into the ovary where it develops into abnormal tissue. They are most often benign, which means they are not cancer.

Cystadenomas are classified as neoplasms or new growth tissues that may have two different forms. The smaller type of these cysts is called serous cystadenomas, normally has a diameter between 2 and 6 inches (5.1 to 15.2 cm) and are filled with a thin, watery liquid. Women aged 20 to 40 are most likely to develop this type of cystadenoma. A larger type is called the mucinous cystadian,Usually it has a diameter of 6 to 12 inches (15.2 to 30.5 cm), but can grow much larger and are filled with a thick material similar to gelatin. They are most common among women aged 40 and 60 years.

Although cystadenomas are usually benign, especially much smaller and less disturbing serous diversity, the macinous form can develop into a very large matter. Large cysts can disrupt the normal internal functions of the uterus, stomach, intestines and intestines. Although the incidence is rare, each type of cystadenoma has the potential to develop as a malignant or cancer cyst.

Due to their small size, serous cystadenomas show several symptoms that report their presence and are most often diagnosed during routine gynecological tests. Larger mucinous cystadenoma is easier to detect from such inspections and it is possible to characterize unusual abdominal or menstrual pain. Fortunately, a regular gynecologist canIal examinations usually diagnose both types of cystadenomas long before they become problematic. Cystadenomas can also be discovered by ultrasound examination, followed by an X -ray to determine the nature of the cyst from the material it contains.

The standard procedure for the treatment of cystadenoma is surgical tissue removal. For smaller serous cysts, the doctor can use lapaplaskopia in which the uterus is inserted a thin tube with a small cut in the abdomen. For larger mucinous cystadenoma, intra oomatular surgery may be required. In both cases, the occurrence of complete recovery is high, because cystadenomas rarely return as soon as they are surgically removed.
