| Popis: | BACKGROUND The widespread availability of ultrasonography means that transvaginal ultrasonography has become a routine procedure during gynecological examinations, even in asymptomatic patients. Nowadays the imaging technology offered by ultrasonography and tumor biomarkers give us an opportunity to implement transvaginal ultrasound-guided aspiration as a less radical treatment of simple ovarian cysts (SOC). OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was a retrospective evaluation of the diagnostic and therapeutic efficacy of transvaginal ultrasound-guided aspiration of SOC in postmenopausal and premenopausal patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 84 women, divided into a premenopausal group (38/84) and a postmenopausal group (46/84), underwent transvaginal ultrasound-guided aspiration of small SOC (40-80 mm in diameter). Simple cysts were defined ultrasonographically according to the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) guidelines as cysts with negative risk of ovarian malignancy algorithm (ROMA) scores and CA125 levels. Simple ovarian cyst-related data was obtained from medical documentation (diagnostic tests, medical reproductive and surgical history, and clinical status during SOC aspiration). Follow-up data was collected by means of a telephone interview and medical database. The survey included questions focused on cyst recurrence during the 24-month period following the aspiration of SOC. RESULTS We had 100% compatibility with ultrasound diagnosis and cytological examination of aspirated fluid. The cumulative rate of cyst recurrence among 84 patients was 20.2% (17/84). There was a higher percentage of cyst recurrence in the premenopausal group: 27% (10/38) vs 15.2% (7/46) in the postmenopausal group, but the difference was not statistically significant (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.89, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 0.72-4.97; p = 0.19). Recurrent cysts were treated with laparoscopic cystectomy, adnexectomy or a second aspiration in accordance with individual indications. CONCLUSIONS Ultrasound-guided aspiration of small ( |
