Paraovarian cyst: symptoms, diagnosis and modern methods of elimination
Paraovarian cyst is a benign neoplasm located between the ovary and the fallopian tube. Unlike tumours, its increase does not occur due to cell division, but due to the accumulation of fluid inside the cavity. Because of this feature, such cystic formations do not pass into a malignant form.
Causes of appearance
The main factor that provokes the development of paraovarian formation is associated with a violation of embryogenesis - the process of its formation begins at the stage of intrauterine development. Most often, pathology is detected in women of reproductive age during a routine gynaecological examination or ultrasound.
When do symptoms occur?
If the cyst has a small size (up to 3 cm), the disease is asymptomatic. With an increase may appear:
- Pulling pains in the lower abdomen or in the side.
- Violation of the menstrual cycle.
- Frequent urination.
If the size is small, treatment is not required, regular observation by a gynaecologist is enough. However, with the growth of the formation or planning a pregnancy, removal is recommended.
Diagnosis and approaches to treatment
Usually, the paraovarian cyst does not bother a woman for a long time. Suspicion of its presence may arise during a preventive examination. To confirm the diagnosis, the doctor can appoint:
- Ultrasound examination (ultrasound ).
- Blood tests for oncomarkers.
- Diagnostic laparoscopy.
Unlike other types, paraovarian does not disappear on its own and is not amenable to drug treatment. If enlarged, surgical removal is required .
Modern methods of removal
Israeli clinics offer minimally invasive surgeries, allowing to save the ovaries and fallopian tubes. This is especially important for women planning a pregnancy.
The most common methods are:
- Laparoscopic removal - the operation is performed through small incisions with minimal tissue traumatisation.
- Aspiration - the contents of the cyst are sucked out with a special needle, then an alcohol solution is injected into the cavity, causing the cells to die off.
- Cavity surgery - used in exceptional cases in the presence of complications.
