Marsupialization and fistulization are current surgical procedures for the treatment of symptomatic Bartholin duct cysts and gland abscesses. Other combined application methods include silver nitrate, carbon dioxide (CO2) lasers, aspiration and alcohol sclerotherapy. However, except for Word catheterization, most of these methods are relatively time-consuming and are not associated with low recurrence rates.
