The term para-aortic adenopathy is usually used in the context of para-aortic lymphadenopathy. It is defined as an enlargement in the size of the lymph nodes which are around the aorta. The aorta is defined as the largest blood vessel. The main function of the largest blood vessel, which is called the aorta, is to move the blood out of the heart to the rest of the human body.
There are many causes for para-aortic adenopathy. Para-aortic adenopathy is a condition which can either be caused by inflammation of the aorta, infection in the aorta and cancer in the aorta, which is largest blood vessel in the circulatory system of the human body. It is not necessarily caused by ovarian cancer. A transvaginal ultrasound is good at visualising the ovaries and the other parts of the human body which are in the immediate area. A pelvic ultrasound gives better results.
