Decompression Technique In A Large Ovarian Cyst Assumed To Be Benign: A Surgical Approach

Video Transcription

Video Summary

A 33-year-old woman with a large ovarian cyst underwent a controlled decompression surgical technique to prevent tumor spillage. A small infraumbilical incision exposed the mass, and dermabond was applied to adhere a sterile glove to the cyst surface. A suction tip drained 4 liters of serous fluid through a glove incision, collapsing the cyst safely. The glove was sealed to avoid spillage during cyst removal, followed by salpingo-oophorectomy. Pathology revealed papillary thyroid carcinoma within a mature teratoma confined to the ovary. This method demonstrates a safe, spillage-free approach for managing large ovarian cysts.
