Comparison of ovarian endometriosis by laparotomy cystectomy and laparoscopic cystectomy

Objective To compare the operation on the ovarian endometriosis by laparoscopic cystectomy and laparotomy cystectomy to assess the feasibility of laparoscopic cystectomy for ovarian endometriomas. Methods Analyze the operatve results of 166 patients with ovarian endometriomas by laparoscopic cystectomy and 132 patients with laparotomy cystectomy. Results 166 pateints underwent laparoscopy were successful. The average blood loss was 60ml, the average duration of operation was 63 min, the average post operative hospital stay was 2.5 days, no postoperative fever over 38℃ occurred. In 132 pateints with laparotomy, the average blood loss was 70 ml, the average duration of operation 72 min, the average post operative hospital stay was 7 days. Conclusion For moderately severe ovarian endometriosis patients, laparoscopic cystectomy is safe and feasible, which has the advantages of being least invasive, quick recovery, shorter hospitalization and low recurrence.
