Ovarian cyst,endoscope view. The ovary (white) at left is swollen due to a cyst (an abnormal fluid- filled sac). The uterus (pink) is at upper centre,and the other (normal) ovary is at centre right. The fallopian tube of the healthy ovary is also seen. An ovary is normally only 2-4 centimetres across. In comparison,the uterus is usually about 7 centimetres long. This cystic ovary has swollen to the size of the uterus. An ovarian cyst is not usually malignant (cancerous),but if it reaches a large size it may interfere with normal functions. Large ovarian cysts are surgically removed | |
