The following structures are felt during bimanual pelvic examination

  • A. Ovary
  • B. Uterus
  • C. Fallopian Tube
  • D. Cervix
Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Uterus. During a bimanual pelvic examination, the examiner can palpate the uterus between their fingers. The uterus is a key structure that can be felt for its size, shape, and position. The ovaries, fallopian tubes, and cervix are not typically felt during a bimanual exam as they are located deeper within the pelvis and are not easily palpable. Palpating the ovaries directly is not typically part of a routine pelvic examination due to their small size and position behind the uterus. The fallopian tubes are also not typically palpable during a bimanual exam as they are located laterally to the uterus. The cervix may be felt during the exam, but it is not the main structure that is typically palpated during a bimanual pelvic examination.
