Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional

Official Title: Comparison Between Abstention and Intrauterine Aspiration in the Treatment of Anechoic Fetal Ovarian Cysts to Prevent Ovarian Torsion

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether prenatal ovarian cyst aspiration is effective and safe to prevent perinatal ovarian torsion.

Detailed Summary: With the widespread use of routine sonography during pregnancy, the incidence of fetal ovarian cysts detected in utero has increased in the past decades. However
