Q

Space of Rezius. How is bladder displaced with a mass in this space?

A

Extraperitoneal potential space b/w pubic symphysis and bladder. Mass in space will displace bladder posteriorly. Pelvic/abdominal mass will displace bladder inferiorly/anteriorly.

49
Q

Simple cyst f/u in premenopausal patient

<3cm, no mention. 3-5, mention as benign. 5-7 usually benign, but follow annually. >7cm, need MRI or surgery.

50
Q

52
Q

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Etiology. Criteria for dx.

A

Complication of fertility treatment, thought to be due to VEGF dysregulation causing capillary leak. Criteria is enlarged ovary (>5cm), presence of either ascites or hydrothorax, or a clinical symptom inluding increased hematocrit, WBC, LFts, renal failure, or dypnea. OHSS increases risk of torsion and ectopic.

53
Q

Q

Paraovarian cyst

A

Simple cyst, separate from ovary, developmental in origin (wolfian duct remnants). Normal if <5cm.

A

Dermoid:SCC, Endometrioma: Clear cell

69
Q

Role of MR in ovarian cancer
