HÚT 10 LÍT DỊCH CHO BỆNH NHÂN U NANG BUỒNG TRỨNG KHỔNG LỒ

On December 9, 2025, Thai Nguyen International Hospital diagnosed and treated a middle-aged female patient with a giant ovarian cyst, measuring over 36 cm, occupying nearly the entire abdominal cavity. Specialists from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology assessed this as a rare case, carrying a high risk of serious complications if not managed promptly.

📌 Ms. N (43 years old) had previously undergone one cesarean section and experienced irregular menstrual cycles. For nearly three years, she noticed an abnormal increase in abdominal size. As there was no pain or other noticeable symptoms, she assumed it was weight gain and did not seek medical attention.

Only when her abdomen became significantly distended and caused discomfort did Ms. N visit Thai Nguyen International Hospital for examination, where she was diagnosed with a right ovarian cyst. After undergoing diagnostic tests, doctors confirmed that the cyst was extremely large (312 × 360 × 178 mm), occupying the entire abdominal cavity. Tumor marker tests returned normal results. Early surgical intervention was therefore indicated to prevent risks such as torsion, rupture, and compression of other abdominal organs.

The surgery was performed by a highly experienced medical team, including Dr. Nguyen Thi Yen, MD (Level I Specialist) – Deputy Director of Thai Nguyen International Hospital, Dr. Ly Thi Vui, MD (Level I Specialist) – Head of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, along with their colleagues. Approximately 10 liters of fluid were drained from the cyst, and the ovarian cyst was safely removed.

Following surgery, Ms. N was alert, responsive, with a soft abdomen and a clean, dry surgical wound. During close postoperative monitoring, her recovery progressed well. She and her family expressed their sincere gratitude to the surgical team and to the doctors and nurses of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Thai Nguyen International Hospital.

📌 Ovarian cysts are very common gynecological conditions affecting women of all ages. Most cases progress silently without obvious symptoms until the cyst becomes large or complications arise. At that point, patients may face several serious risks, including:

Ovarian torsion causing severe abdominal pain

Rupture of the cyst leading to intra-abdominal bleeding

Compression of digestive organs, ureters, and blood vessels

Risk of malignant transformation in certain types of ovarian cysts

📌 Recommendations from Dr. Ly Thi Vui, MD (Level I Specialist) – Head of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Thai Nguyen International Hospital:

“Being complacent about abnormal abdominal enlargement, menstrual irregularities, or prolonged abdominal fullness may cause patients to miss the optimal window for treatment.”

Dr. Vui also advises women to:

– Undergo regular gynecological check-ups at reputable medical facilities with adequate equipment to detect ovarian abnormalities early.

– Seek medical attention immediately when experiencing lower abdominal pain, menstrual irregularities, or persistent bloating.

– Avoid underestimating ovarian cysts, as they may twist, rupture, and affect reproductive function.

– Follow medical advice and avoid self-medication.
