- Abstract
In a prospective, randomized study, Bartholin's cysts were depicted in 36 patients by means of ultrasound imaging. Patients were requested to return for a follow-up US examination after surgery. We were able to show that Bartholin's cysts can easily be expressed with ultrasonographic techniques. In clinical practice, this approach may not only help to improve diagnostics, but may also make therapy measurable and, for the first time, objectifiable.
