Medscape Clinic Patient Information
Patient Name: Abigail
Patient Age: 47 years
Presenting Condition: The patient presents with a mass on the left ovary, enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes (diameter of 2 cm) below the level of the renal veins, and small volume of ascites.
Abigail is a 47-year-old female with no major comorbidities, no personal history of cancer, who is perimenopausal. Prior investigations showed a mass on her left ovary during a routine gynecologic exam. Her CA-125 was 175 U/mL and a computerized tomography (CT) scan showed a 6 cm complex mass on the left ovary, enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes (diameter of 2 cm) below the level of the renal veins, and small volume of ascites. Abigail is presenting today to a medical oncologist’s office to determine if the mass is cancerous.
