About Ovarian Cyst

Ovarian cyst management is a specialized gynecological procedure performed by an Obstetrician and Gynecologist to diagnose, monitor, or treat fluid-filled sacs (cysts) on the ovaries. While many cysts are harmless and resolve on their own, intervention is necessary when they cause significant pain, are suspicious for cancer, or persist and grow. Treatment options range from conservative monitoring with ultrasound to surgical removal via minimally invasive laparoscopy or, in complex cases, open surgery (laparotomy). The primary goals are to relieve symptoms, preserve ovarian function, and rule out malignancy. This tailored approach ensures optimal reproductive health and patient well-being.

Key Highlights

    Effective relief from pelvic pain, pressure, and bloating caused by cysts.Minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques often allow for smaller incisions, less scarring, and faster recovery.Helps preserve healthy ovarian tissue and fertility whenever possible.Provides a definitive diagnosis by allowing tissue analysis to rule out ovarian cancer.Can prevent complications like cyst rupture or ovarian torsion.

Who is this surgery for?

  • Persistent or complex cysts larger than 5-10 cm that do not resolve after several menstrual cycles.
  • Cysts causing severe or chronic pelvic pain, pressure, or discomfort.
  • Suspicion of malignancy based on ultrasound features (e.g., solid components, irregular borders).
  • Cysts that are growing rapidly or are present in postmenopausal women.
  • Complications such as ovarian torsion (twisting) or cyst rupture with internal bleeding.
  • Cysts interfering with fertility treatments or causing infertility.

How to prepare

  • A detailed pelvic ultrasound and possibly blood tests (like CA-125) to assess the cyst's characteristics.
  • A thorough medical history review and physical examination by the gynecologist.
  • Discussion of anesthesia options and pre-anesthetic check-up if surgery is planned.
  • Fasting for 6-8 hours prior to a scheduled surgical procedure.
