Photograph of an ovarian cyst wall being removed from an ovary, with part of the inner lining of the ovarian cyst removed from the surrounding normal ovarian tissue. The entire cyst wall should either be removed (ideal treatment) or completely destroyed (depth of the lesions inside the cyst can be difficult to assess) to maximize postoperative success (for either pain relief or fertility enhancement). Complete hemostasis is maintained with (bipolar) cautery.
