Laparoscopic trocar management of a giant paraovarian cyst: a case report [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/15j]

Abstract

A 17-year-old woman had undergone exploratory laparotomy because of a huge cystic pelviabdominal mass equivalent of 36 weeks' gestation. A closed system drainage maneuver was applied via using a laparoscopic trocar to drain a revealed large left paraovarian cyst. This maneuver was found to be a simple and effective method to safely aspirate giant paraovarian cysts; thus allowing their total excision.
