They now want to perform another ultra sound. the question I have if they already know its there why not just remove? My concern is they think its cancer .

Hi,
It is better to go for another ultra sound for confirmation of diagnosis.
There might be having some other possibilities for having this problem.
Do not think of cancer.
Go for ultra sound again and rule out some other causes.
Ok and take care.
