Is A Small Amount Of Complex Avascular Echoes Within The Distal Half Of The Cervix A Serious Concern?

I had a vaginal ultrasound this afternoon. Can you explain the oncologist note: Small amount of complex avascular echoes within the distal half of the cervix. This would be consistent with blood, atypical for polyp although low-grade malignancy not excluded.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
The following conclusions can be inferred based on ultrasound report you have furnished.
The findings states that in the lower half of the cervix, small amount of complex avascular echoes has been noted.
This finding does not go in favour of polyp proper and hence low-grade malignancy (cancer) needs to be ruled out.
To diagnose what exactly it could be, you need to undergo cervical biopsy and histopathological examination of the specimen, which will depict the nature of the lesion.
Kindly consult Gynecologist in this regard for further evaluation and appropriate management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.,
