Abstract

The results of laparoscopic adnexial cyst excision operations performed within the last 2.5 years in our clinic are reported Thirty-three adnexial masses thought to be benign after gynaecological examination and ultrasonographic findings were treated Laparoscopy was done in 32 cases but laparotomy had to be performed in one case of stage IV endometriosis. The mean duration of the operations was 72.78 ± 34.09 minutes and no major complication occurred. Pathologic examinations of the specimens were reported as benign in all cases. According to these results, laparoscopy should be the preferred method in the treatment of benign adnexial cysts.
