Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy

What is a Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy?

Laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed using a few small incisions in the lower abdomen to remove a cyst from the ovary.

Why is this Surgery Required?

Many women develop ovarian cysts at some point in their lives. If the cyst causes symptoms such as pelvic pain, painful periods, or discomfort during sexual intercourse, removal of the cyst through surgery may be the most effective treatment option.

What Happens During the Surgery?

Before the procedure begins, you will be given anesthesia to ensure you are comfortable and asleep. A laparoscope – a thin telescope with a camera on one end – is inserted into the abdomen through a small incision. Additional tiny incisions are made for surgical instruments to safely remove the cyst.

What are the Risks?

While laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy is generally safe, there is a small risk of:

  • Possible removal of the ovary

  • Bleeding during surgery

  • Infection at the surgical site

  • Rare damage to adjacent organs (bladder, bowel, or ureters)

What Should I Expect During Recovery?

After surgery, it is normal to experience some abdominal soreness and mild shoulder or back pain due to the gas used during the procedure. This usually resolves on its own. Light vaginal spotting or discharge may also occur.

  • Most patients are discharged the very next day.

  • You can take a bath, but keep the stitches dry and covered.

  • Light activities may be resumed early, but avoid heavy work for a few weeks.

  • Stitches are usually removed after 7 days.
