Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy

  • Amberwell Lansing Clinic, Amberwell Atchison, Amberwell Hiawatha, Amberwell Health
A laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to remove cysts from one or both ovaries. It’s performed using small incisions and a camera to guide the surgery, minimizing damage to healthy tissue.

What It Treats

Laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy is used to treat ovarian cysts, which are fluid-filled sacs on an ovary. While many cysts are harmless and resolve on their own, some may cause pain, hormonal imbalances, or be cancerous. Removing these cysts can relieve symptoms and ensure they’re benign.

Benefits of a Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy

Opting for a laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy can offer several advantages:

  • Minimally Invasive: Small incisions mean less pain and quicker recovery compared to open surgery.
  • Preservation of Ovaries: Often, the procedure allows for the cyst to be removed while preserving ovarian health and fertility.
  • Shorter Hospital Stay: Most patients can go home the same day or the day after surgery.
  • Rapid Recovery: Most patients return to normal activities within a week.

What to Expect

Procedure Setting: Outpatient

Before: You’ll have a consultation with Dr. Warren and his team, undergo tests to evaluate the cysts, and receive instructions on preparing for surgery.

During: Under general anesthesia, a few small incisions will be made in your abdomen. Dr. Warren will insert a laparoscope to view the ovaries and remove the cysts. The procedure typically lasts about 1-2 hours.

After: Most patients go home the same day. You may experience some discomfort, managed with medication. Follow-up appointments ensure proper healing.

Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy at Amberwell

When it comes to treating ovarian cysts, laparoscopic surgery offers a minimally invasive option with a shorter recovery time and less discomfort than traditional open surgery. At Amberwell Surgical Care, we provide expert, compassionate care for women needing ovarian cyst removal—right here close to home.

Dr. Warren, a board-certified general surgeon at Amberwell, has experience performing laparoscopic ovarian cystectomies as part of Amberwell’s comprehensive women’s health surgical services. He works closely with your Amberwell primary care provider to ensure that your care is coordinated, personalized, and well-communicated. This connection between surgical and primary care means you benefit from precise treatment and the continued support of a provider who understands your overall health.

At Amberwell, we believe in helping women make informed decisions with confidence. We’re here to guide you through the process, answer your questions, and make sure you feel supported at every stage of your care.
