OBJECTIVE: Tubo-ovarian abscess is mostly a consequence of pelvic inflammatory disease. We aimedto compare success of the different surgical methods in tubo-ovarian abscess treatment.STUDY DESIGN: 53 patients with tubo-ovarian abscess that were hospitalized and operated in theDepartment of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospitalduring one year were included. Patients who had underwent salpingectomy/salpingo-oophorectomy andonly abscess drainage were compared.RESULTS: Salpingectomy/salpingo-oophorectomy had been done in 74.5% of cases and only drainagehad been applied in 25.5% of cases. Difference in mean values between 2 groups were not observedexcept white blood cell count. CONCLUSION: Treatment of tubo-ovarian abscess must be a combination of parenteral antibiotics andearly surgical procedure to prevent poor outcomes. There is not any difference between different surgical techniques. But additionally more studies are needed to better understand which operation techniqueis more effective and less complicated
