Abstract
With the advent of high-frequency transvaginal ultrasonography, new opportunities are presented to better define ovarian lesions. The scoring system was useful in distinguishing benign from malignant masses, with a specificity of 83%, sensitivity of 100% and positive and negative predictive values of 37% and 100% respectively The study was conducted on 30 patients with suspected various adnexal masses in a period of 2yrs from 2005-2007. After taking consent, all patients underwent TAS and TVS. Sassone scoring system was applied. All patients later underwent laparotomy. Results of ultrasound were correlated with operative and histopathological findings. Our study show sensitivity of ultrasonographic Sassone scoring system for predicting the adnexal masses- sensitivity-100%, specificity-96%, positive predictive value-75% and negative predictive value-100% Ultrasonography Sassone scoring system for predicting the adnexal masses is more sensitive.
