Adnexal mass referral patterns in Gynecologic Oncology
Our service has seen an increasing proportion of adnexal mass referrals that meet ACOG referral criteria. There is also a trending increase in malignant histopathology. This may be due to increased scrutiny of referrals by gynecologic oncologists starting in 2016 with appropriate referral to benign gynecology. Improved scrutiny of adnexal mass referrals could decrease the number of benign cases evaluated by Gynecologic Oncology, helping preserve resources for patients with higher risk of malignancy.
