Cost-effectiveness of opportunistic salpingectomy for ovarian cancer prevention

Gynecologic Oncology, 2017
Data suggesting a link between the fallopian tube and ovarian cancer have led to an increase in rates of salpingectomy at the time of pelvic surgery, a practice known as opportunistic salpingectomy (OS). However, the potential benefits, risks and costs for this new practice are not well established. Our objective was to assess the cost-effectiveness of

Opportunistic Salpingectomy to Reduce the Risk of Ovarian Cancer

The National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly, 2016
Substantial medical evidence shows that about half of ovarian cancers originate in the fallopian tube. Some medical organizations and clinical articles have suggested opportunistic salpingectomy to reduce the risk of ovarian cancer in patients at average risk of developing it.

Abstract IA016: Opportunistic salpingectomy for ovarian cancer prevention

Cancer Research
In those at high risk for ovarian cancer, particularly people with a BRCA1/2 mutation, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is recommended, which reduces the risk of ovarian or fallopian tube cancers by 80%.
