Gynecology letter following appointment

I received a letter from gynecology follow an appointment to receive my ultrasound results.

I have endometrial thickening of 15mm and hyperechoic endometrial mass measuring 2.5cm.

 On the letter it says risk of malignancy: 02- 2ww but I do not know what this means as it wasn't discussed.

Can anyone explain.

Thank you.

  • Hello Helenapuk and thanks for your post,

    I think that the 2ww refers to the urgent referral but I can't be sure. The 02 before the 2ww may be a particular code that they use at the hospital but I am not sure what this refers to.

    We have some information on our website about urgent referral

    I do hope that you hear more soon.

    If you would like to ring and chat through any of this with one of the helpline nurses you are welcome to give us a ring.

    Our number is freephone 0808 800 4040 and we are here Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm.

    All the best,

    Catherine
