Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop on or within the ovaries. While many cysts are benign and resolve spontaneously, some can cause symptoms like pelvic pain, bloating, or irregular menstrual cycles. In cases where intervention is necessary, laparoscopic surgery offers a minimally invasive solution. Dr. Anshumala Shukla, a renowned gynecologist and laparoscopic surgeon in Mumbai, specializes in the management and treatment of ovarian cysts, providing patients with personalized care and advanced surgical options.
Understanding Ovarian Cysts
Ovarian cysts vary in type, including:
-
Functional Cysts: Often related to the menstrual cycle and typically harmless.
-
Dermoid Cysts: Containing various tissues like hair or skin.
-
Endometriomas: Associated with endometriosis, where uterine lining tissue grows outside the uterus.
-
Cystadenomas: Developing from ovarian tissue and filled with liquid or mucous.
When is Surgery Needed?
Surgical intervention may be recommended if:
-
Cysts are large or persistent: Typically those over 5 centimeters or lasting several menstrual cycles.
-
Symptoms are severe: Including significant pain or discomfort.
-
Potential malignancy: If there's a suspicion of cancerous growth.
Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy
This procedure involves the removal of ovarian cysts through small abdominal incisions. A laparoscope provides a magnified view of the pelvic organs, allowing precise excision of the cyst while preserving healthy ovarian tissue. Benefits include shorter hospital stays, reduced postoperative pain, and quicker return to daily activities.
