Ovarian cyst - oophrectomy

Posted , 1 user is following.

I have large ovarian cyst (11cm at last check, up from 7 2 years ago). i have an oophrectomy booked in for Monday - just wondering peoples experiences?

scans show it appears to be a simple cyst and bloods are clear.

at 11cm is laproscopic likely or open surgery? i dont mind just want to know - .also is it likely tubes will end up being taken too?

also what's the recovery like?
