Resumen

Advances in technology, most notably imaging, now aid physicians in distinguishing benign from malignant pelvic masses, although no single modality is perfect. The ability of the physician to determine which patient needs surgery and which masses can be managed expectantly is of utmost importance. The combination of symptom assessment, imaging, tumor marker assessment, and physical examination helps physicians triage patients appropriately, which results in better outcomes for patients with a pelvic mass.
