Bartholin's cyst
Insertion of a Word catheter to treat a Bartholin’s cyst. The site is cleaned and anaesthetised, and then a small stab incision (3 to 4 mm) is made into the cyst/abscess cavity (parallel to the hymen ring). The Word catheter is introduced into the cyst/abscess cavity after the contents have drained. The balloon is filled with sterile saline and a suture is tied around the catheter to prevent leaking or deflation. The catheter end is then tucked into the vagina.

Bartholin's cyst
Marsupialisation of a Bartholin’s cyst. The site is cleaned and anaesthetised, and then a 1.5 to 2 cm incision is made just distal to the hymen ring within the introitus into the region of the normal duct opening. The cyst/abscess cavity is irrigated and loculations are broken down if necessary. The incised cyst/abscess wall is then approximated to the edge of the vestibular skin.
