The operation to remove the ovarian cyst

To date, almost every woman is turning to a gynecologist with cystic formations in the ovaries.

Pathological formation, that is, a cyst, is a watery bladder located in or near the ovary.

The causes of cystic formations can be different: inflammatory or infectious processes in the pelvic organs, surgery, abortions, frequent hypothermia, hormonal disorders.

Removal of ovarian cyst with laparoscopy

The operation to remove the ovarian cyst is mainly performed by laparoscopy. Previously, an open intervention was performed to remove the ovarian cyst , laparoscopy does not require tissue incisions. The operation to remove the ovarian cyst with laparoscopy is as follows: a syringe filled with air is inserted into the abdominal cavity, which allows the inserted tube with the camera to obtain an image of the organs under examination on the monitor. If the diagnosed ovarian cyst was confirmed, then it is removed. It also assesses the condition of all the pelvic organs of a woman. If the cyst is large, its removal occurs in two stages. To begin with, the body of the cyst is pierced, then aspiration of its contents is carried out, then the cyst itself is removed. This is done in order to avoid the accidental rupture of the body of the cyst and the outflow of its contents into internal organs. This method allows you to extract a large cyst through a puncture in one centimeter in diameter. In this case, the ovary of a woman is partially or completely preserved after the operation. The operation to remove the ovarian cyst can be performed with the help of an ordinary incision, it all depends on the surgeon's experience and the availability of special equipment.

Possible complications in the presence of ovarian cysts

The presence of an ovarian cyst in a woman can be accompanied by: painful sensations, painful menstruation, an increase in the period of the menstrual cycle, a lack of menstruation or inability to conceive. But this is not the worst thing, if the cyst progresses, and no treatment is performed, then serious complications can arise which are manifested in the form:

• Bloody discharge;
• Rupture of the cyst;
• Overgrowth of the cyst, which can lead to ovarian torsion;
• Abnormal cyst changes leading to cancer;
• Infertility.

Methods of removing cystic formations

The operation to remove the ovarian cyst is possible in several ways:

• Kystectomy - this method allows you to save the ovary, removing only the cystic formation. The functions of the ovary and the woman's ability to conceive in the shortest period after the operation are also preserved.
• Resection of the ovarian cyst is a method in which the damaged tissue of the ovary is excised, and a large, healthy part of it remains.
• Ovariectomy - removal of the ovary.
• Adnexectomy is the removal of the ovary and the fallopian tube or two fallopian tubes that are projected to it.

Postoperative period should be accompanied by anti-patech procedures.

Cyst Ovary and pregnancy

There are two types of cystic formations during pregnancy: functional, or follicular, ovarian cyst and pathological cyst. In the first case, no surgical intervention is required. In the second, you need to delete. Functional cyst is a normal phenomenon, which leads to increased work of the ovaries during pregnancy. This ovarian cyst during pregnancy resolves after the first trimester. The pathological cyst arises from the presence of infection in the pelvic organs or hormonal disorders. To date, surgeons very successfully solve this problem, while maintaining a pregnancy.
