Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy in Delhi

Ovarian cysts are common, and most disappear on their own without any treatment. When one is large, persistent, painful or suspicious, a laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy removes the cyst through keyhole incisions while preserving the healthy ovary. At Sama Hospital’s gynaecology unit — a NABH-accredited, doctor-owned hospital in South Delhi — it is usually a day-care or one-night procedure.

Many cysts are functional — part of the normal cycle — and resolve within a few months with nothing more than a follow-up scan. Surgery is for cysts that are large, persistent, painful, have concerning ultrasound features, or twist or rupture. If yours can safely be watched, we’ll say so.

• Pelvic pain or a dull one-sided ache
• Bloating or a feeling of fullness
• Pain during periods or intercourse
• Sudden severe pain — possible twisting (torsion) or rupture; seek care immediately

Through a few small keyhole incisions, the cyst is carefully separated from the ovarian tissue and removed. Preserving the ovary matters for hormones and fertility, which is why cystectomy — rather than removing the whole ovary — is the preferred operation in younger women whenever feasible.

Usually day care or one night. Most women walk the same day, return to desk work within about a week, and are fully recovered in two to three weeks. Brief shoulder-tip pain and bloating from the laparoscopy gas settles in a day or two.

The operation is designed to protect fertility — cyst out, healthy ovary preserved. For some cysts, particularly endometriotic ones, removal is part of managing fertility. Your surgeon will discuss your specific case honestly.

What moves the figure: the cyst’s size and type, and whether it is day care or an overnight stay.

No — most are functional and resolve on their own with a follow-up scan. Surgery is for large, persistent, painful or suspicious cysts, or ones that twist or rupture.

Keyhole surgery removing the cyst while preserving the healthy ovary — important for hormones and fertility, and the preferred operation in younger women.

It’s designed to protect it: cyst removed, ovary preserved. For some cysts, removal is part of managing fertility rather than a threat to it.

Day care or one night; walking the same day, desk work in about a week, full recovery in two to three weeks. Brief gas-related shoulder pain settles quickly.

Sudden severe one-sided pain, especially with nausea, can mean torsion or rupture. Torsion threatens the ovary’s blood supply and needs urgent surgery — seek care immediately.
