I had an ovarian cyst removal surgery last October, and now I'm having it done again on the same

Patient's question:

2014819,lower abdominal pain

Doctor's answer:

Salpingo-oophorectomy, for patients aged 45 or older or postmenopausal women, can be performed on one or both sides. It is noteworthy that regarding the surgical treatment of larger ovarian cysts, the size of the incision should not be a concern, and the cyst should be completely removed to prevent the leakage of its contents into the abdominal cavity or the incision. During the procedure, it is important to monitor rapid changes in intra-abdominal pressure, which may cause fluctuations in the patient's pulse, respiration, and blood pressure. If necessary, intravenous fluids or blood transfusions should be accelerated, and oxygen should be administered. Early detection of acute gastric dilatation, paralytic ileus, and the resulting water and electrolyte imbalance should also be prevented.
