Abstract: | The methods used to carry out exeresis of ovarian cysts by celioscopy are now familiar. Today, the main concern is the selection of annexial tumors appropriate for celiosurgical treatment in order to limit their use to benign organic cysts only. By comparing the results of a sery of 200 cysts which were treated surgically with cases in the literature, the authors conclude that the three-pronged use of clinical, ultrasound and macroscopic data in the diagnosis of malignant tumors is reliable. Progress remains to be made however in identifying functional cysts which are sometimes mistaken for an organic structure and all too often are still dealt with surgically. In order to reduce the incidence of such errors, new perspectives are envisaged, knowing that diagnostic error is often related to change in their ultrasound structure or their persistence despite conventional estro-progestogen treatment. |
