They found a. 9.5 cm lymphoepithelial cyst on a part of a ovary left from a hysterectomy when I was 27. I am 53 now on a lot of pain at times .they found it on a MRI I was having of my left hip for a torn tendon . My doctors said it need to be removed considering age and size . Could it be cancer ?

Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you should not worry much about cancer. Torn tendon does not suggest malignancy. It may be due to mal union or non union of the injured tendon.
And pain is also due to this.
So better to get it removed surgically. And send the sample for histopathological examination to rule out malignancy.
In my opinion it will not come malignant lesion. So no need to worry much.
