“…The ultrasound guided aspiration of the cyst has been recommended in some researches before operation following the eliminating via an incision laparoscopically. It has also reported that the patients with large sized ovarian benign cysts reaching the umbilicus level can also be administrated using laparoscopic surgery [13]. In current study, the use of open laparoscopy preferred as during its entry into the abdomen, it seemed to be harmless and would avoid inadvertent punctures of such big sized ovarian cysts.…”

Objective: To analyze diagnostic and surgical outcomes in patients with extremely large ovarian cysts treated by laparoscopic surgery. Methods: A total of 120 cases of large adnexal masses and suspected for malignancy were treated laparoscopically at the at general surgery department of Liaquat University of Medical & Health Sciences. Under endotracheal anesthesia, all surgeries were performed using nasogastric tubes in the stomach. An incision of approximately 1.5 centimeter was made at the supraumbilical or umbilical region and peritoneal cavity was approached. The intra-abdominal approach in all cases was cautiously standardized. The resection of the adnexal mass was performed as per routine method. Results: 12 females were premenopausal and 8 were postmenopausal. 12 women presented with the signs of urinary retention, urinary urgency and abdominal pain. Incidental sonography detected cysts in 8 patients which were asymptomatic. The average volume of the resected cystic fluid was 3000ml (range 900 to 9000 ml). The specimens of frozen section were obtained within the surgical procedure in all patients except 2 patients having para-ovarian cysts. The histopathology presented mucinous benign cystadenoma. There was no blood loss and related other complications reported in all operations. Conclusion: Laparoscopic management of large ovarian cyst observed to a effective, feasible and less complicated surgical option. However accurate selection and diagnosis of the patients, the any ovarian cyst size can be treated easily via laparoscopic surgery.
