Filter by:Introduction : The most common technique used for ovarian cystectomy is the stripping technique. After stripping the cyst wall, the subsequent bleeding of the ovarian stromal wound is usually controlled by bipolar coagulation or/and by suturing. However, hemostasis achieved with bipolar coagulation could result in damage to the ovarian reserve. To avoid damage to healthy ovarian tissue, hemostasis using various topical hemostatic agents has been introduced to control post- cystectomy ovarian wound bleeding. Among these, FloSeal (Baxter Healthcare Corporation, Deer- field, IL, USA) is a hemostatic sealant composed of a gelatin-based matrix and thrombin solution. Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of topical hemostatic sealants and bipolar coagulation during laparoscopic ovarian benign cyst resection on ovarian reserve by comparing the rates of decrease in anti- Mùˆllerian hormone (AMH). Methods: A randomized prospective data collection was made on women aged 18-45 years who planned to have laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy at one of two institutions (n = 80), Montpellier University Hospital and Nimes University Hospital, France. Patients were randomly divided into two groups treated with either a topical hemostatic sealant (Floseal) or bipolar coagulation for hemostasis. Preoperative, 3-month and 6-month postoperative AMH levels were checked and the rates of decrease of AMH were compared.
