Abstract/OtherAbstract:
There has been explosive growth in the utilization of cross-sectional imaging studies in the evaluation of patients with known or suspected abdominal and pelvic pathology. These imaging studies have led to a veritable epidemic of incidentally detected adnexal masses in both oncology and non-oncology patient populations that in the past remained undiscovered. In this commentary we provide some guidance and practical advice for further investigation and management of the adnexal incidentaloma.
