In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this study is to evaluate which operative technique should be used for managing simple ovarian cysts in girls and adolescents. The two techniques that are being compared are laparoscopic cyst enucleation and laparoscopic cyst deroofing. The investigators will assess the effect of both techniques on the ovarian reserve and the risk of cyst recurrence.
