“…Cyst marsupialization is a simple minimally invasive procedure, which creates minimal surgical scarring and results in the pathological diagnosis of a Gartner duct cyst. Long-term follow-up after such a procedure has proven its efficacy with no demonstrated side effects or recurrence [ 11 ]. The management strategies for multiloculated recurrences include periodic surveillance, sclerotherapy, and marsupialization [ 12 ].…”

Conservative treatment and follow-up of vaginal Gartner’s duct cysts: a case series

et al. 2016

BackgroundIn women, during embryologic development, the paired Müllerian (paramesonephric) ducts fuse distally and develop into the uterus, cervix, and upper vagina. If the Wolffian ducts persist in vestigial form, they can lead to Gartner’s cysts, mainly located in the right wall of the vagina. This is one of the few studies of Gartner’s cysts with a series of consecutive cases over a long period of time who were exclusively subject to clinical observation. Although Gartner’s cysts are found in approximately 0.1 to 0.2 % of women, controversy exists regarding the course of action to be taken.Case presentationWe describe the cases of four women who were 38-years old, 53-years old, 37-years old, and 49-years old at their first appointment and who were of mixed ethnicity, mixed ethnicity, black, and mixed ethnicity respectively. The follow-up of these patients ranged from 2 to 17 years. In these four cases the location of the cysts was the right wall of the vagina. Transvaginal ultrasound was the test of choice for diagnostic confirmation. In the cases presented in this study, the women were asymptomatic and chose to be observed clinically.ConclusionsThis is the first study reporting long-term clinical observation of these lesions. This study shows that conservative treatment can be a safe option for asymptomatic patients with vaginal Gartner’s duct cysts.

“…Surgical excision is frequently associated with bleeding owing to the natural vascularity of vagina and other postoperative complications like pain, haemorrhage and dyspareunia 30. The large GC can be treated by various ways like aspiration and 5% tetracycline sclerotherapy30 de-roofing or marsupialisation31 with reasonable results.…”

Normal functioning single system ectopic ureter draining into a Gartner’s cyst: laparoscopic management

et al. 2013

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Association of single system ectopic ureter with normal functioning bilateral kidney and absence of congenital anomalies is very rarely reported in the literature. We are reporting for the first time a case of this type of anomaly in which uretral ectopia was draining into a Gartner's cyst and was managed by laparoscopy. A 16 year girl presented with normal voiding with continuous dribbling since birth. Voiding cystourethrogram, intravenous urogram, cystovaginoscopy and retrograde contrast study confirmed the diagnosis. Ultrasound of the whole abdomen and physical examination ruled out any associated congenital anomalies. Transperitoneal laparoscopic ureteric reimplantation was performed and distal stump was ligated. On follow-up at 3 months she was completely dry; her vaginoscopy showed disappearance of cystic bulge and her voiding cystourethrogram showed normal study without any reflux. When single system ectopic ureter opens into small-to-moderate size wide opened mouth vaginal Gartner's cyst, laparoscopic ureteric reimplantation and ligation of distal stump is an appropriate procedure.

“…Die Therapieoptionen sollten sich nach der Beschwerdesymptomatik und Schwere der assoziierten Fehlbildungen orientieren. So wurden, neben konservativen Therapieansätzen bei asymptomatischen Zysten [6], operative Therapieansätze wie Marsupialisation [17] oder Exzision der kompletten Zyste [18], aber auch Ureterektomie bei ektopem Ureterverlauf im Rahmen einer GGZ [1,2] beschrieben. Im Falle einer Doppelniere mit ektop mündendem Harnleiter in der GGZ stellt die Ureteroureterostomie heute eine elegante und gering invasive Alternative zu der früher routinemäßig durchgeführten oberen Heminephrektomie dar [19].…”
