I would wait 4 weeks before doing anything as there is always a risk of taking out a corpus luteal cysts and thus causing an iatrogemic miscarriage. If four weeks later she still had a cyst of same size and especially if complex I would err strongly on the side of removal (initially cystectomy with frozen section). You only have to see one case of a young mother dying from a nasty germ cell tumour because of conservative management to be influenced for the rest of your life.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
