Medical jargon

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had an ideal of what a letter I got from my consultant to my GP. It stated I have a 7cm solid papillary when discussing the ovarian cyst. I am also not off the cancer pathway yet either. Can someone explain the medical jargon please? I would really appreciate it.

Many thanks x 

  • Hello and thanks for your enquiry,

    Unfortunately, we can't comment in depth. This is a pathology sentence describing the appearance of a 7cm solid cyst, but is not a diagnosis. We can't really comment any more, and you will need to ask your doctor to place this in context, and explain it to you.

    I hope that you get to find out more soon.

    Best wishes,

    Vanda
