| Abstract: | In the last 30-40 years, diagnosis in gynecology has been radically changed by the widespread use of abdominal – and especially vaginal – ultrasonography. The present case illustrates how suspicious images necessitate more detailed investigation and follow-up to rule out an underlying malignancy. In the present case, ultrasonography – and especially Doppler – was the only procedure suggesting neoformation. Therefore, we believe that an echo-Doppler-color ultrasound system should be available in all gynecology consulting rooms. This non-invasive technique has demonstrated effectiveness and reproducibility, provides a high diagnostic yield, and requires minimal time to perform. The use of this procedure in the routine follow-up of patients could help in the early diagnosis of neoformative processes, with clear benefits. |
