OBJECTIVE: To evaluate sclerotherapy with @entity167 and @entity2929 in the management of simple @entity42 . METHODS: Twenty-four simple @entity42 were subjected to sclerotherapy with @entity167 and @entity2929 . All procedures were performed under local anesthesia and in an outpatient setting. Cytological examination was carried out in all cases and two @entity1 were excluded from the study because of suspicious cytological results. The @entity1 were followed up monthly with color Doppler sonography for more than 12 months. RESULTS: Cyst fluid was serous in 17 cases and dark- @entity6353 colored in seven cases. The volume of aspirated fluid ranged from 100 to 220 ml. The size of ovarian masses and cyst-wall thickness ranged from 5.5 to 8.5 cm and 1.5 to 5 mm, respectively. Cytological analysis of 15 cysts revealed acellular sediment, seven cysts were compatible with @entity46 , and two were reported as suspicious. During the 12-month follow-up, seven cyst recurrences were detected. CONCLUSION: Aspiration and sclerotherapy with @entity167 and @entity2929 are followed by a relatively high recurrence rate when the aspirate is bloody. However, @entity1 with a simple cyst that is @entity158 or liable to torsion could benefit from sclerotherapy. Such @entity1 , who are at low risk for @entity5 , are relieved with sclerotherapy while avoiding surgery.
