Laparoendoscopic single-site surgery for exteriorization and cystectomy of an ovarian tumor during pregnancy.
Herein, we describe a surgical approach for management of a pregnant woman with an ovarian tumor using laparoendoscopic single-site surgery with exteriorization. We assessed both the feasibility and cosmetic outcome. The operation lasted 25 minutes, and the estimated blood loss was negligible. No perioperative or postoperative complications developed, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 2.
