Predicting risk of malignancy in adnexal masses.
OBJECTIVE To estimate the accuracy of preoperative ultrasonography, serum CA 125, and patient demographics as a means of predicting risk of malignancy in women with a ultrasonographically confirmed adnexal mass. METHODS Tumor morphology derived from ultrasonographic images, tumor size, tumor bilaterality, serum CA 125, and patient demographics were evaluated preoperatively in 395 patients und...

متن کاملValidation of a second-generation multivariate index assay for malignancy risk of adnexal masses.
BACKGROUND Women with adnexal mass suspected of ovarian malignancy are likely to benefit from consultation with a gynecologic oncologist, but imaging and biomarker tools to ensure this referral show low sensitivity and may miss cancer at critical stages. OBJECTIVE The multivariate index assay (MIA) was designed to improve the detection of ovarian cancer among women undergoing surgery for a pe...
متن کاملCut-ff Values for the Risk of Malignancy Index with Adnexal Masses
It is of particular importance to establish accurate preoperative diagnosis for adnexal masses. Reliable recognition of benign masses would reduce the number of redundant surgeries for asymptomatic benign lesions. Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most fatal of all gynaecologic malignancies in women. Optimal cytoreductive surgery is the most significant prognostic factor in the management of OC (Harla...
