What is the treatment for bilateral ovarian cysts?

Everyone must be familiar with the term ovarian cyst. This is a very common gynecological disease in women. Women with ovarian cysts usually experience some lower abdominal pain. In more serious cases, the pain is severe and there may even be some vaginal bleeding. Many people do not know how to treat it, especially bilateral ovarian cysts. How should bilateral ovarian cysts be treated?

1. Surgical treatment of benign ovarian cysts: (1) Ovarian cystectomy. This procedure is often used in young patients, especially premenopausal patients, while preserving normal ovarian tissue as much as possible.

(2) Salpingo-oophorectomy: Older patients (over 45 years old) or postmenopausal patients can undergo unilateral or bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. It is worth noting that in the surgical treatment of larger ovarian cysts, the size of the incision should be ignored and complete resection is preferred to avoid breaking the patient's pulse and allowing the contents to spill into the abdominal cavity or incision. During the operation, attention should be paid to the rapid changes in abdominal pressure that cause changes in the patient's pulse, breathing, and blood pressure. When necessary, infusion or blood transfusion, oxygen supply should be accelerated, and early detection of acute gastric dilatation, paralytic intestinal obstruction, and the resulting water and electrolyte imbalance should be prevented.

2. Surgical treatment of malignant ovarian cysts: (1) Most patients are in the advanced stage when they seek medical treatment, so every effort should be made to remove the primary cyst and any visible pelvic and abdominal metastases. Because malignant ovarian cysts are often adhered or infiltrated with the uterus and adnexa, and are closely attached to the pelvic peritoneum, the uterus and tumor are often removed in one piece along with the pelvic peritoneum in a rolling carpet style, such as omentectomy, partial intestinal resection, partial bladder and ureter resection.

(2) Consider placing a catheter in the peritoneal cavity to facilitate the postoperative intraperitoneal injection of chemotherapy drugs.

During the treatment of bilateral ovarian cysts, female friends should pay attention to rest and never overwork. They should also pay attention to diet and avoid eating spicy and irritating foods, or eating too much blood-enriching food, otherwise it may cause uterine congestion, which is not conducive to the recovery of the disease. They should also pay attention to rest and not overwork. Especially after surgery, the body will be very weak, and it is very necessary to eat more nutritious food.
