FINAL DIAGNOSE CASE-27

Radiology case -27 FB and INSTA post Analysis


FINAL DIAGNOSE - Pelvic Neoplastic, serious cystadenoma Lesion with Ascites

Patient: 65-year-old female
Clinical Presentation: Lower abdominal pain with progressive swelling..


CT Findings (CECT Abdomen & Pelvis):

🔹 Ascites:

  • Moderate free fluid is seen throughout the peritoneal cavity, particularly accumulating in the pelvic region.
  • Suggestive of malignant or inflammatory etiology.

🔹 Pelvic Mass:

  • A large, heterogeneously multiple ring  enhancing pelvic mass lesion seen most possibility -? Neoplasm, serous cystadenoma  
  • The lesion is lobulated, shows areas of necrosis, and is causing displacement of bowel loops.
  • No clear fat plane with adjacent organs, raising suspicion of local invasion.
  • Surrounding fat stranding noted.

🔹 Upper Abdomen:

  • Liver is normal in size with no focal lesion.
  • Gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and kidneys appear unremarkable.
  • No biliary dilatation or hepatosplenomegaly.

🔹 Lymph Nodes & Metastasis:

  • No significant lymphadenopathy.
  • No obvious evidence of hepatic or osseous metastasis in visualized sections.

🧠 Radiological Impression:

Moderate Ascites
Large pelvic neoplastic lesion.


💡 Teaching Points for Radiology Learners:

🔸 Always evaluate the origin of pelvic masses — uterine vs ovarian — look for the "claw sign" or uterus displacement.
🔸 Presence of ascites in postmenopausal women with pelvic mass should raise concern for malignancy.
🔸 CT is excellent for assessing tumor spread, while MRI is better for origin clarification in female pelvis.
🔸 Correlate with tumor markers: CA-125 (ovarian), CEA (GI), CA 19-9 (pancreatic/GI).


📌 Next Step:

🔬 Recommend MRI pelvis and tumor markers for further characterization.
🤝 Referral to gynecologic oncology for biopsy and treatment planning.
