[Organ-saving therapy of small ovarian cystomas and dermoids by surgical laparoscopy--a trial 1985-1987].
The article reports on the results of the removal of small benign ovarian tumors (teratoma, cystic adenoma) without oophorectomy. 10 patients were treated by laparotomy and 23 patients with operative laparoscopy. The laparoscopy procedure is limited to tumors not larger than 5 cm. In this procedure it is especially difficult to recognize the difference between a luteal cyst and a cystic tumor which is a already malignant. Careful preoperative and intra-operative attention must be paid to the differential diagnosis. So far, follow up of the 14 patients with cystic adenoma and the 19 patients with teratoma, has shown no recurrence of tumor in the remaining ovary.
