Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy

Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop on or inside an ovary. While many cysts are harmless and resolve on their own, some grow very large, cause severe pelvic pain, or raise concerns for malignancy.

**Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy** is a delicate, minimally invasive surgery designed to meticulously peel away and remove the cyst while preserving the healthy surrounding ovarian tissue. This is incredibly important for young women, as leaving the healthy ovary intact preserves hormonal balance and future fertility.

At Prakash Hospital, our expert gynecological surgeons use state-of-the-art laparoscopy to perform this precise surgery with tiny incisions, ensuring you recover rapidly and safely.

During the Procedure: You will be under general anesthesia. The surgeon makes 3 small keyhole incisions (0.5 to 1 cm) in your abdomen. Using a laparoscope (camera) and highly precise instruments, the surgeon carefully isolates the ovary, makes a small cut on its surface, and gently peels the cyst away from the healthy tissue. The cyst is then placed in a surgical bag and safely removed through one of the incisions.

Preservation: Great care is taken to use minimal heat or cautery near the healthy ovarian tissue to protect the remaining eggs (ovarian reserve).
