Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of preservation of ovarian function, hemostasis, and safety of a hemostatic agent versus suturing during laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy for ovarian endometriosis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In women with endometrioma who plan to undergo laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy, surgical technique can influence postoperative ovarian function because of removal of normal ovarian tissue with ovarian cyst and damage to ovarian tissue during bleeding control after stripping of endometrioma. This study is designed to compare hemostatic sealant to suturing in terms of hemostatic function, safety and preservation of ovarian function.

Ovarian function of all patients will be evaluated on pre op, post op 12 weeks, post op 48 weeks by measuring AMH and ovarian volume. And Hemostatic function will be evaluated by measuring serum hemoglobin, blood loss during operation, etc.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Hemostatic agent group

During laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy, bleeding will be controlled by using a hemostatic agent (EVICEL® Fibrin Sealant, Ethicon, USA), which consist of thrombin and coagulating proteins, mainly fibrinogen and fibronectin. If hemostasis is not fulfilled enough by using it, a additional intervention such as electrocoagulation with bipolar forceps and barbed suture is required to stop bleeding.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Hemostatic agent (EVICEL®) application during laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

During laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy, bleeding will be controlled by using a hemostatic agent (EVICEL®)

Suturing group

During operation, barbed suture will be applied to the inner surface of ovarian parenchyme where ovarian endometriosis was attached. In this group, if bleeding is continued after suturing, additional electrocoagulation with bipolar forceps will be conducted.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

suturing with barbed sutures during laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

During laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy, suturing of ovarian inner surface will be conducted to stop bleeding
