my wife had sudden sharp pain early this morning and for the pain was unbearable I took her to the doc and now she is hospitalized for the pelvic ultrasound showed ruptured cyst on ovary-and she is in fact now having emergency surgery. I am pretty much occupied with this ruptured cyst on ovary in my wife-I think it is about some cystadenomas-and am afraid if this could be some serious and life-threatening condition. I would also like to hear for we are young couple who were planning on having a baby soon would this ovarian cyst rupture cause any trouble regarding this issue? Thanks!

Being hospitalized for ruptured cyst on ovary is always life-threatening and if the emergency surgery is done on time than I don't think you should be worried that much. I suppose your wife had this cyst affected only one of her ovaries and if so she still has got good chances of staying pregnant. My sis had the same problem about 8 years ago and she had an urgent surgery for the ovarian cyst rupture and her left ovarian was removed but she managed to get a child. She also had the same sort of ovarian cyst like your wife-cystadenomas which in my sis case was filled with some mucous material that has spread all over the abdomen for the cyst has ruptured so it all needed to be cleared fine to avoid some infections and the only way it could be done is having an urgent surgery.
