dermoid cysts

How are Dermoid Cysts Treated?

Treatment depends on the size of the cyst and the symptoms it causes. Options include:
Watchful waiting: Small, asymptomatic cysts may be monitored with regular ultrasounds to ensure they do not grow.
Surgical removal: Larger cysts or those causing symptoms may need to be surgically removed. This can often be done using minimally invasive techniques like laparoscopy.
In rare cases where the cyst is large or suspected to be malignant, an oophorectomy (removal of the ovary) may be recommended.
