This article provides all the information about the ovarian cyst and the procedure.

Latest Advances in Ovarian Cyst Removal in India

Recent advances in ovarian cyst removal in India have greatly improved patient outcomes by offering minimally invasive techniques that reduce pre-operative pain and accelerate recovery. Now, here is the list of advances which include:

• Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy: This minimally invasive procedure involves making small incisions in the abdomen and using a laparoscope to inspect and remove the cyst. It offers benefits such as faster recovery, less scarring, and reduced postoperative pain compared to traditional open surgery.
• Robotic-Assisted Ovarian Cystectomy: Similar to laparoscopic surgery, this method uses robotic arms controlled by a surgeon, allowing for more precise movements and better visualization of the surgical site, leading to improved outcomes.

How Ovarian Cyst Removal Procedure is Done?

Before the Surgery

• Before the surgery, healthcare providers will ask you to stop eating and drinking anything.
• They will instruct you when to come hospital and stop the medications that you are taking.

During the Surgery

• You will receive general anesthesia and an IV will be inserted into your vein in which medications and fluids will be administered.
• Once you sleep properly, the surgeon will insert a laparoscope through a tiny incision near the belly button.
• The device contains a camera at the end, and then the surgeon will inflate the abdomen wall with carbon dioxide which helps to give the best view of the pelvic organ.
• After this, they will make two to three incisions in the lower abdomen area to insert surgical instruments.
• Incisions are small like half an inch long, and then the surgeon will remove the cyst through one of these incisions.
• After this, surgeons will deflate the abdomen close the incision with dissolvable stitches, and cover it with a bandage.
• If the laparoscopic isn’t possible then they will perform open surgery which involves a large incision in your abdomen to remove the cyst.

After the Surgery

• After the surgery, you will be sent to the recovery room and once you’re awake you might feel some discomfort.
• The surgical team will monitor overall health such as blood pressure, heart rate, and other vital signs.
• If you go through laparoscope cystectomy then you can go home within two to three hours and if you had surgery then you need to stay overnight.

Diagnosis and Evaluation

• A cyst in the ovary can be diagnosed during a pelvic exam or imaging test. Depending on the size of the cyst doctors recommend tests to determine its type and whether it should be treated or not.
• Tests include:
• Pregnancy test. During the initial days of pregnancy, corpus luteum cysts are normal to see.
• Pelvic ultrasound. Under this, a wandline device sends and receives high-frequency sound waves that help to create an image of the uterus and ovaries, which helps to confirm whether you have cysts or not.
• Laparoscopy. Under this, a slim lighted instrument is inserted into the patient's abdomen through a small cut which helps to determine the cyst's existence in the ovaries.
• Tumor Maker Tests. It helps to determine the present cancer cells or other cells of the body in response to cancer or certain benign conditions that provide information about cancer about how aggressive it is.
