Abstract
:
Objective: To assess the effectiveness of operative laparoscopy for treatment of large ovarian dermoid cyst. Materials and Methods: From January 1997 through January 2007, all operative laparoscopy notes at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia were reviewed. Inclusion criteria included women with ovarian dermoid cyst (less than 10 cm), were reviewed. Ten women with ovarian dermoid cysts 8 cm ± 2 (mean ± SD) underwent ovarian laparoscopic cystectomy by the same surgeon. The age was 27 ± 7 years (mean ± SD). They all had normal tumor markers (CA 125, CEA, alpha fetoprotein, and beta human chorionic gonadotropin). Eight women were multiparous and two women were nulliparous. The presenting symptoms were pelvi-abdominal pain in six women, secondary infertility in two women, and abnormal vaginal bleeding in two women. Eight women had unilateral dermoid cyst and two women had bilateral dermoid cysts. Results: Laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy was successfully done in all women. There was no conversion to laparatomy in this series. The mean operative time was 90 ± 15 minutes. Estimated blood loss was 300 ±50 ml. There were no intraoperative complications. Histology showed benign cystic teratoma. Long term follow up (7 ± 3 years) showed no recurrence of the cyst and five women got pregnant after the procedure (two infertility women, two previous nulliparous women and one multiparous woman). Conclusion: Laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy is effective for large ovarian dermoid cysts
