Highlights
Adnexal masses are a common finding in women of all ages, with a 5-10% lifetime risk of surgery for suspected ovarian neoplasms [1]
While age is the largest risk factor for ovarian cancer, the combined history and physical findings dictate whether an ovarian mass can be expectantly managed with close follow up or surgical management [2]
Laparoscopy has become the standard of care in surgical management of ovarian cysts, and has been increasingly shown to be effective in dealing with even large benign cysts in properly selected patients
Summary
Adnexal masses are a common finding in women of all ages, with a 5-10% lifetime risk of surgery for suspected ovarian neoplasms [1]. The most common symptoms of ovarian cysts are pelvic pressure or pain, many can remain asymptomatic. While age is the largest risk factor for ovarian cancer, the combined history and physical findings dictate whether an ovarian mass can be expectantly managed with close follow up or surgical management [2]. Laparoscopy has become the standard of care in surgical management of ovarian cysts, and has been increasingly shown to be effective in dealing with even large benign cysts in properly selected patients. We report the successful management of bilateral large ovarian cysts with ovarian cystectomy and tubal sparing
