What does right cystic adnexa mean-Pelvic CT scan?

I was hospitalized for surgery and had a CT scan done. I be looking over the report and on the PELVIC scan it says "right csytic adnexa." I was contained by the hospital for something else, and the drs never mentioned it.

What does it mean? Does adnexa mean ovaries? For a while I've thought I have endometriosis or ovarian cysts, so can this be?

Answers:    "Right cystic adnexa" does not contain adequate information. It should include "mass" or "structure" or some other word to describe what is cystic.

Cystic means a fluid jam-packed consistancy. Right and left adenexa area the areas to any side of your uterus. But it should say "cystic SOMETHING in the right adnexa." Talk beside your doctors, even if it means you need to product a phone call just for this. I am assuming that you probably have a right ovarian cyst, but ovaries can be hard to see on CT scans, because they are small. So the radiologist saw a cystic nouns in the adnexa, but he/she could not assume it was on the ovary, since the ovary could not be see. Do remember, that every month, prior to ovulation, we develop follicular or functional cysts on our ovaries. These are normal, and can be seen surrounded by a patient with no symptoms.
