Sexual function after Bartholin gland abscess treatment: A randomized trial of the marsupialization and excision methods

The excision of the gland for treating the Bartholin abscess resulted in less dyspareunia and recurrence when compared to the marsupialization procedure. Lower FSFI scores were reported in both groups, however, FSFI scores in the excision group were higher than in the marsupialization group. The excision of the Bartholin gland did not hamper sexual function.
