Question 15 • Medical Terminology - EL3620

Carole is having surgery to remove a benign tumor and some tissue that has built up on her ovaries. What would she most likely be diagnosed with?

Answer
A
a fibroid and bacterial vaginosis
B
a fibroid and endometriosis
C
endocervicitis and eclampsia
D
endocervicitis and vaginal candidiasis

Explanation

A fibroid is a benign tumor, and endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, including on or around the ovaries. Thus, surgery to remove a benign tumor and tissue built up on the ovaries most likely points to a fibroid and endometriosis. Bacterial vaginosis and vaginal candidiasis are infections, not ovarian tissue growth conditions.
