Pelvic Masses
The most common masses in the pelvis are fibroids from the uterus and cysts from the ovaries.
These masses can cause pressure on adjacent structures such as bladder and bowel. Women may experience dragging sensation in the lower abdomen or urinary frequency. An ovarian cyst would cause acute severe pain if complications like bleeding, torsion and rupture occur. A woman may be able to feel a large fibroid or ovarian cyst over the lower abdomen externally.
If you suspect that you have a mass in the pelvis, a proper imaging, such as an ultrasound scan, can find out if the mass originates from the female reproductive organs.
Surgery is the most effective way to remove an abnormal ovarian cyst or problematic fibroids. Laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery offers a safe, minimally invasive alternative to traditional open surgery to diagnose and remove the pelvic mass.
