An ovarian cystectomy, as described in Berek & Novak's Gynecology, is a surgical procedure to remove ovarian cysts. This procedure is used to treat cysts that cause pain, bleeding, or other complications. It can be performed laparoscopically or through an open incision, depending on the size and location of the cysts.

Recovery involves a period of rest and avoiding heavy activities. Patients should follow their doctor's instructions and attend follow-up appointments to ensure proper healing. An ovarian cystectomy can significantly improve symptoms and enhance the patient's quality of life.
