| Popis: | Background: An adnexal mass (mass of the ovary, fallopian tube, or surrounding connective tissues) is a common gynecologic problem. Early diagnosis and intervention is essential especially in younger women to conserve the ovarian function. Aim of the Work: to evaluate the usefulness and value of Doppler and 3D Ultrasound as a method to enhance differentiation between benign and malignant pathologies before surgical intervention in women having adnexal swellings. Patients and Methods: This study was carried out in Obstetric and Gynecology Departments in Al-Azhar University Hospitals on 30 patients who had a preliminary diagnosis of an adnexal mass. After history taking and clinical examination, all patients underwent abdominal sonographically, Doppler examination and 3D ultrasound scan from April 2017 to September 2018. Results: Women with malignant masses were older than those with benign masses (46.00±9.76 vs 44.50±7.62 years) respectively. BMI in benign cases was lower than recorded in malignant cases (30.13±3.21 vs 38.57±0.81) with statistical significant difference between two them (P |
