[|Human|] the gyn found a 5 centimeter mass in my mom s uterus. she s 66. She was sent for a ct scan which showed no infected lymph nodes with cancer. she had a CA 125 test done that came back normal and her pap came back good. could the mass be something other than cancer? wouldn t the Ct scan have shown if it was cancer? we re all a nervous wreck in waiting!thanks
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. Since your mothers CA 125 is normal, PAP smear is normal and CT shows only mass without lymph nodes, I think it is a benign tumor of uterus like fibroid, Desmond or lipoma. But the 100% sure test to rule out cancer is biopsy and histopathological examination. So to rule out malignancy and fear of cancer get done biopsy. If this comes normal than no need to worry about cancer. You may have above-mentioned benign tumors.
