DESIGN  Retrospective study with a comparative control group performed on Hospital Brigadeiro and in the Disciplina de Ginecologia do Departamento de Obstetr\u00edcia e Ginecologia, Hospital das Cl\u00ednicas, Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo from February 2005 to March 2009. Patients: Patients with Bartholin\u2019s gland cyst were divided into three treatment groups: group 1 electrosurgery (n=169 cases); group 2 - gland excision with the conventional technique using a cold scalpel (n = 51 cases); group 3 - marsupialization (n=11 cases). We reviewed the clinical and surgical history, physical examination, description of the surgical technique, postoperative results (success and complications), and follow-up data.  RESULTS  There is no difference between groups in relation to intraoperative bleeding, hematoma, and complete healing in a single treatment session. However, electrosurgery shows the lower percentage of recurrences 18 (10,7%) compared to the Marsupialization technique (group 3, p=.031). Recurrences occurred in 18 (10,7%), 3 (5,9%), and 4 (36,4%) cases. After retreatment by the same technique, there was a complete cure rate of 90% (152\/169) for group 1, and 98% (50\/51) for group 2. The cost of group 1 was lower than that of other groups.  CONCLUSION  The fulguration with electrosurgery of the capsule of Bartholin\u2019s cyst is an effective method of treatment, andthe cost of this technique is lower than the conventional technique and marsupialization.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/1806-9282.66.2.201","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,19]],"date-time":"2020-05-19T23:14:29Z","timestamp":1589930069000},"page":"201-209","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Is electrosurgery fulguration a better procedure for Bartholin\u2019s gland cyst?"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"66","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9852-4341","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marcia Farina","family":"Kamilos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Celso Luiz","family":"Borrelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital Heli\u00f3polis,  Brasil; Conselho de Ginecologia Oncol\u00f3gica de Federa\u00e7\u00e3o Brasileira de Ginecologia e Obstetr\u00edcia,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6568-3218","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ruben","family":"Sciuto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine of Uruguay,  Uruguay"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fernanda Pereira","family":"Cotrim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0167-861X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eduardo Carvalho de Arruda","family":"Veiga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jos\u00e9 Maria","family":"Soares J\u00fanior","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2712-2724","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maricy","family":"Tacla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0111-9030","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Edmund Chada","family":"Baracat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"530","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","series-title":"Benign diseases of the vulva and vagina","first-page":"240","author":"Kaufman RH","year":"2005","edition":"5"},{"series-title":"Bartholin gland diseases clinical presentation.
