Ovarian Cysts Removal is a surgical procedure used to remove cysts that develop on or inside the ovaries. While many ovarian cysts are harmless and disappear without treatment, surgery may be recommended when a cyst is large, persistent, painful, growing, or has suspicious features. Depending on the cyst's size and characteristics, removal may be performed through laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery or open surgery, with the aim of preserving healthy ovarian tissue whenever possible.
Patients with Large or Persistent Cysts
Women with ovarian cysts that are large, do not resolve on their own, or continue to grow during monitoring.
Women with Painful Cysts
Patients experiencing persistent pelvic pain, abdominal discomfort, pressure, painful intercourse, or other symptoms caused by an ovarian cyst.
Patients with Suspicious Cysts
Women whose cysts have complex or unusual features on imaging, particularly when further evaluation or removal is required to rule out serious conditions.
Comprehensive Ovarian Assessment
Your gynecologist performs a pelvic examination, ultrasound, blood tests, and other imaging or diagnostic tests to evaluate the cyst's size, appearance, and characteristics.
Cyst Removal Surgery
Under appropriate anesthesia, the surgeon removes the ovarian cyst while preserving as much healthy ovarian tissue as possible. Laparoscopic surgery is commonly used when suitable.
Recovery & Follow-Up Care
After surgery, your medical team monitors healing, provides pain management and activity guidance, and reviews pathology results when the removed cyst is sent for laboratory examination.
