Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical value of transvaginal enucleation of benign ovarian cysts.Methods Transvaginal enucleation of benign ovarian cysts was carried out in 195 patients with surgical indications between January 2000 and June 2004.Relative surgical parameters were observed and recorded.Results Transvaginal operations were successfully completed in 190 patients,while conversions to open surgery were required in 5 because of massive pelvic adhesion.The operating time was 45~83 min(mean,50 min),the intraoperative blood loss was 30~90 ml(mean,45 ml),the time to first passing flatus was 4~24 hours(mean,8.5 hours),and the rate of postoperative pyrexia,18.4%(35/190).Follow-up for 2 weeks showed that patients resumed daily activities and regular works in a percentage of 72.1%(132/183) and 48.1%(88/183),respectively.Conclusions Transvaginal enucleation of benign ovarian cysts has been shown to be a safe and mini-invasive procedure that improves the(patient's) quality of life.
