Abstract：Objective: To diagnose tubo-ovarian abscess(TOA) by transvaginal ultrasound, improve the diagnostic veracity and guide the choice of treatment. Materials and Methods: 186 cases of TOA patients had transvaginal ultrasonography, morphous and blood flow of the mass were detected. Results: In 158 of the 186 cases transvaginal ultrasound clearly showed adnexal mass and made a correct diagnosis accordingly. Accuracy was 85%. Blood flow inside the mass was detected in 58 cases and blood flow arround the mass was detected in 72 cases. Treatment planning was determined according to the size of mass.
