Ovarian Cystectomy Overview
An ovarian cystectomy is a surgical procedure to remove ovarian cysts, which are sacs on the ovary that often resolve without treatment. This procedure can be done laparoscopically (using a laparoscope for minimal invasiveness and easier recovery) or via open surgery (with a large incision), which is necessary if the cyst is large or cancer is suspected. Surgery is recommended if the cyst persists, grows, or causes severe pain. Ovarian cysts are commonly caused by hormonal disorders, ovulation, endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and cancer.
Types Of Ovarian Cysts
Ovarian cyst types are as follows:
• Functional cysts (harmless): These include follicular and corpus luteum cysts.
• Non-functional cysts (benign or malignant): These include dermoid, cystadenomas, endometriomas, and Brenner tumors.

Ovarian Cystectomy: Pre-Op & Post-Op Care
Preparation: The surgeon will discuss the surgery details, perform a medical history review and physical examination, and also suggest imaging and blood tests for a cyst. They may also discuss the preparation for the surgery, including diet, drinking, and stopping medications prior to the surgery.
During the surgery: An ovarian cystectomy involves general anesthesia and an intravenous catheter. The surgeon inserts a laparoscope through a small incision near the belly button and inflates the abdomen with carbon dioxide. Two to three small incisions are made in the lower abdomen to insert instruments and remove the cyst. The incisions are closed with dissolvable stitches. If laparoscopic surgery is not feasible, open surgery is performed through a larger abdominal incision to remove the cyst.
After the procedure: After surgery, the patient will be shifted to the recovery room, where the surgeon will monitor their vital signs. The patient may experience tummy pain, which should improve within days. It may take 1 to 2 weeks to resume normal activities after a laparoscopy or laparotomy. Testing results will be available in a few weeks.
Ovarian cyst removal recovery time: Recovery time for laparoscopic cystectomy is 1–3 weeks, with resumption of usual activities after 1-2 weeks. Open cystectomy recovery can last up to eight weeks. After the laparoscopic cystectomy, patients can return home within two to three hours, while open surgery may require an overnight stay.
Post-procedure care: Post-surgery care guidelines include:
• Prioritize rest.
• Take the prescribed pain medication.
• Follow the doctor’s instructions for incision hygiene.
• Avoid strenuous activity or heavy lifting.
• Transition to a regular diet gradually.
• Consult a doctor for excessive bleeding or foul-smelling discharge.
• Schedule follow-up appointments.
• Resume normal activities upon the surgeon’s consultation.
