Patient's question:
Ovarian cyst 56, the local doctor said it was the size of a goose egg, irregular menstruation, and no other adverse reactions. The cyst has been discovered for almost 5 years, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment was ineffective in the meantime.Doctor's answer:
Salpingo-oophorectomy. In patients with a unilateral ovarian cyst who are older (over 45 years of age), unilateral or bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is commonly performed for bilateral ovarian cysts. When the patient's overall condition cannot tolerate the procedure or the inflammation is severe, a total hysterectomy is often performed. It is noteworthy that when dealing with larger ovarian cysts, the surgery should prioritize complete removal regardless of the incision size to prevent the contents of the cyst from leaking into the abdominal cavity or the incision. During the surgery, it is important to monitor the patient's pulse, respiratory rate, and blood pressure. If necessary, intravenous fluids, blood transfusions, or oxygen should be administered. Early detection of acute gastric dilatation, paralytic ileus, and the resulting water, electrolyte imbalance, and changes in blood chemistry are particularly crucial to prevent.
