Laparoscopy-assisted mini-laparotomy: management of a giant (32 cm) ovarian cyst
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ovarian cysts over 5 and 15 cm are described as large and giant, respectively. Ovarian cysts over 5 cm without regression in 6-8 weeks are indicated for surgery. Although there are published data about the laparoscopic or laparoscopy assisted management of the large and giant cysts, especially in cases of giant cysts midline laparotomy is preferred by many surgeons. In this paper, we present the management of a 32 cm mucinous ovarian cyst by laparoscopy-assisted mini-laparotomy.

They usually measure 2.5-15 cm in diameter, and posterior acoustic enhancement (a hyperechoic area) may be visible deep to the fluid-filled cyst. Most commonly, the...
