title: [Diagnostic and therapeutic value of laparoscopic needle biopsies of persistent para-uterine cysts: absence of recurrences and consecutive pregnancies. In view of ultrasonography-guided biopsies].
abstract: In the presence of a persistent para-uterine cyst, the actual tendency is to operate by laparotomy or most frequently by laparoscopic surgery. This leads to ablation of 20% of the so called "Functional cysts". A 30 years experience of laparoscopic puncture of 745 persistent para-uterine cysts, among which 321 were preserved and controlled, shows that 69% of them, of various origin or nature do not recur, whereas many pregnancies happen to come at short notice: 59% of 117 patients who wished to be pregnant had 73 known living children. Young, nulliparous or sterile patients, could at a first step, under strict conditions, get the benefit of a sonographic-guided diagnostic and therapeutic puncture, avoiding a useless endoscopy or ablation.
