metastasis to the ovary is
common

compressibility of a mass while scanning can assist in differentiating bowel from malignancy and is performed by
hands on maneuver
36
nonneoplastic cystic foci of the ovary are commonly seen in ___ females and are difficult to differentiate from malignant lesions so should be considered when demonstrating the diagnosis
menstruating
37
epithileal ovarian cancers typically form cystic masses and
