OBJECTIVE
To estimate the prevalence of Bartholin gland cysts in asymptomatic women serving as control participants who underwent pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as part of research studies. The secondary aim was to investigate potential demographic characteristics associated with Bartholin gland cysts.
METHODS
Pelvic MRIs from 430 control participants enrolled in five research projects were evaluated. All images were evaluated by at least two authors. The presence, laterality, and size of Bartholin gland cysts were recorded. Demographic information for each participant was obtained at the time of enrollment in the respective parent study.
RESULTS
Approximately 3% of the participants had visible Bartholin gland cysts on MRI scans. Fifty percent of the cysts were identified on the right side, 42.9% were seen on the left side, and 7.1% were bilateral. The cysts were, on average, 1.3×1.2×1.3 cm with dimensions ranging from 0.5 to 2.7 cm. There were no demographic differences between women with and without visible Bartholin gland cysts.
CONCLUSION
Bartholin gland cysts occur in 3% of adult women. The cysts affect women of broad ranges of age and parity. Women with visible Bartholin gland cysts are demographically similar to women without cysts on pelvic imaging.

目的
评估作为对照参与者接受盆腔磁共振成像（MRI）检查的无症状女性中巴氏腺囊肿的患病率。次要目的是研究与巴氏腺囊肿相关的潜在人口统计学特征。
方法
评估了 5 项研究中的 430 名对照参与者的盆腔 MRI。所有图像均由至少两位作者进行评估。记录巴氏腺囊肿的存在、侧别和大小。在参加各自的母研究时，获得每位参与者的人口统计学信息。
结果
约 3%的参与者在 MRI 扫描上可见巴氏腺囊肿。50%的囊肿位于右侧，42.9%位于左侧，7.1%为双侧。囊肿平均大小为 1.3×1.2×1.3cm，大小范围为 0.5 至 2.7cm。有可见巴氏腺囊肿和无可见巴氏腺囊肿的女性在人口统计学方面没有差异。
结论
巴氏腺囊肿在 3%的成年女性中发生。囊肿影响年龄和生育期广泛的女性。在盆腔成像上有可见巴氏腺囊肿的女性在人口统计学上与没有囊肿的女性相似。
