Of note, the ovary is a common place for metastases from uterine, breast, colorectal, and gastric cancers. It often forms during or after ovulation. CA 125 antigen levels reach their highest elevation in the first trimester and then gradually decrease; therefore, low-level elevations during pregnancy typically are not associated with malignancy. No cancers were found after a mean follow-up of 6.3 years, which indicates that malignancy risk is extremely low in this population. The primary goal of diagnostic evaluation of adnexal masses is to exclude malignancy. A prospective trial of 2,763 postmenopausal women with unilocular cysts 10 cm or smaller who were evaluated with serial ultrasonography showed that more than two thirds of patients had spontaneous resolution.
