Abstract
Nabothian cysts are common gynecologic findings and rarely of clinical significance. The squamous epithelium of the uterine cervix proliferates and covers the columnar epithelium of the endocervical glands and the columnar cells continue to secrete mucoid material. This is in important factor for the development of nabothian cysts. Transvaginal ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging are the most useful imaging modalities for cervical cystic lesions. Generally, nabothian cysts do not require any therapy. If the lesion character is not clear and if the patient relief from pain a surgical intervention is needed. Here we report a case with chronic pelvic pain needed surgical intervention because of multiple nabothian cysts.

Özet
Naboth kistleri sık görülen jinekolojik patolojilerdir ve nadiren klinik önem taşırlar. Uterin serviksin skuamöz epiteli prolifere olur ve endoservikal glandların kolumnar epitelini kaplar, kolumnar epitel mukoid material sekresyonuna devam eder; bu durum, naboth kistlerin gelişmesi için önemli bir faktördür. Transvajinal ultrasonografi ve manyetik rezonans görüntüleme servikal kistik lezyonlar için en kullanışlı görüntüleme yöntemleridir. Genel olarak naboth kistleri herhangi bir tedavi gerektirmezler. Eğer lezyonun yapısı belli değilse ve hasta ağrı nedeniyle acı çekiyorsa cerrahi bir müdahale gerekir. Burada kronik pelvik ağrısı olan ve cerrahi müdahale gerektiren çok sayıda naboth kisti olan bir olguyu sunuyoruz.
