Who is this surgery for?
- Persistent cysts larger than 5-10 cm that do not resolve after several menstrual cycles.
- Cysts causing significant symptoms such as severe pelvic pain, pressure, or bloating.
- Suspicion of malignancy based on ultrasound features (e.g., solid components, septations, increased blood flow).li>
- Cysts that are growing rapidly or are present in postmenopausal women.
- Complications like ovarian torsion (twisting) or cyst rupture causing acute pain and internal bleeding.
- Cysts associated with conditions like endometriosis (endometriomas) or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) causing unmanageable symptoms.
- Infertility evaluation where a cyst is suspected to be a contributing factor.
How to prepare
- Medical Evaluation: Complete physical exam, pelvic ultrasound, and possibly blood tests (e.g., CA-125) to assess the cyst.
- Consultation: Detailed discussion with your gynaecologist about the surgical plan, risks, benefits, and anesthesia.
- Medication Review: Inform your doctor about all medications, especially blood thinners, which may need to be stopped temporarily.
- Fasting: Typically, no food or drink (including water) for 6-12 hours before the surgery as advised.
- Bowel Prep: In some cases, a mild laxative or enema may be recommended to empty the bowels.
- Logistics: Arrange for someone to drive you home after the procedure and assist you for the first 24-48 hours.
Risks & possible complications
- General Surgical Risks: Reaction to anesthesia, infection, and bleeding at the incision site or internally.
- Organ Injury: Rare risk of damage to nearby structures like the bladder, intestines, or blood vessels.
- Ovarian Function Impact: Potential for reduced ovarian reserve or, in rare cases, need for removal of the ovary (oophorectomy).
- Adhesion Formation: Scar tissue can develop inside the pelvis, potentially causing future pain or fertility issues.
- Cyst Recurrence: Some types of cysts, like endometriomas or dermoid cysts, may grow back.
- Blood Clots: Risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), though early mobilization minimizes this.
Recovery & hospital stay
- Immediate Post-Op: You will be monitored in a recovery area. Laparoscopy often allows same-day discharge; laparotomy may require a 1-3 day hospital stay.
- Pain Management: Prescribed pain medication will help manage discomfort, which is typically most intense in the first 2-3 days.
- Activity: Rest is crucial initially. Avoid heavy lifting (more than 5-10 kg), strenuous exercise, and driving for 1-2 weeks or as advised.
- Wound Care: Keep incision sites clean and dry. Watch for signs of infection like redness, swelling, or discharge.
- Follow-up: A post-operative visit is scheduled to check healing, discuss pathology results, and plan any further care.
- Return to Normalcy: Most women can return to non-strenuous work within 1-2 weeks. Full recovery and resumption of all activities may take 2-4 weeks for laparoscopy and 4-6 weeks for open surgery.
