    The primary outcome of this study will be the hemostasis time

    Day 1

Study Arms (2)

electrosurgical energy group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

in this group electrosurgical energy will be used to control bleeding

Procedure: laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy using electrosurgical energy

Hemostatic Sealant group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

in this group Hemostatic Sealant will be used to control bleeding

Procedure: laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy using hemostatic sealant

Interventions

* A small incision will be made on the ovarian surface using laparoscopic scissors. * Nontraumatic grasping forceps will be used to dissect the cyst capsule away from the soft tissue of the ovary. * The cyst will be removed intact to avoid spillage of its contents. If rupture occurs, the peritoneal cavity will be irrigated thoroughly. * After the removal of the cyst, the ovarian bed should be inspected for bleeding, and if there is minimal bleeding, using of electrocautery should be avoided to minimize thermal damage to the ovary. * The hemostatic sealant as Surgicel original, Surgicel Fibrillar (ETHICON, USA) which is an absorbable hemostat (oxidized regenerated cellulose) will be applied directly to the bleeding surface 1:5sheets of hemostat will be used.

Hemostatic Sealant group

A small incision will be made on the ovarian surface using laparoscopic scissors. * Nontraumatic grasping forceps will be used to dissect the cyst capsule away from the soft tissue of the ovary. * The cyst will be removed intact to avoid spillage of its contents. If rupture occurs, the peritoneal cavity will be irrigated thoroughly. * After the removal of the cyst, the ovarian bed should be inspected for bleeding, and if there is minimal bleeding, using of electrocautery should be avoided to minimize thermal damage to the ovary In the electrosurgical energy using group the hemostasis method will be different and will be achieved using electrosurgical energy. * After the cyst removal and cyst bed examination, any bleeding will be carefully coagulated using bipolar electrosurgical energy * Minimal energy will be applied for short durations to reduce collateral thermal
