Medical Conditions - Adnexal Cyst

Ovaries and the fallopian tubes, along with the associated blood vessels, connective tissues, and ligaments, constitute the adnexa. Therefore, any fluid-filled growth in this region is known as an adnexal cyst. These cysts are usually noncancerous in nature. Adnexal cysts may be asymptomatic or they may produce symptoms like pain, fullness in the stomach, bloating, and abdominal pain. Depending upon the type, size, and location of the cysts, the severity of the symptoms can vary.
