Bladder neoplasm MRI




 

Radiological Report : MRI Pelvis :

The scan confirms the presence of an 8.5cm mixed solid cystic mass lying centrally in the pelvis. This lies separate from the uterus and from its position I think this structure may well be the bladder rather than an ovarian mass.

The only way to be certain however would be to repeat the ultrasound with the patient catheterised and to introduce fluid at the time of the scan. The mass is obviously neoplastic with tumour extending into the pelvic fat and there is a necrotic nodal mass with a superoinferior diameter of 3.2cm adjacent to the right iliac vessel.

There is gross right hydronephrosis and hydroureter and minor dilatation of the left renal pelvis and ureter. The uterus is separate from the mass lesion and appears normal. The ovaries are not identified.

Overall I think this is likely to be a bladder neoplasm rather than gynaecological. A repeat ultrasound scan as described or even cystoscopy in the first instance is recommended.
