Clinical Trial Summary

Prophylactic (Opportunistic) salpingectomy is a cost-effective strategy recommended for reducing the risk of ovarian cancer at the time of gynecologic surgery in women who have completed childbearing. Similar evidence for cesarean section is growing. However, salpingectomy refers to the surgical removal of a female reproductive organ. Some women may have hesitations about salpingectomy with regard to religious concerns, reduced self-image, tubal reanastomosis or lack of knowledge.

The investigators aimed to explore the underlying factors that motivate women for either decisions.


Clinical Trial Description

Prophylactic and opportunistic bilateral salpingectomy is an increasing trend among surgeons and also proven as an effective risk-reducing method for ovarian cancer.

The investigators have experienced denials among women who were seeking tubal ligation as a sterilization procedure during cesarean section after a comprehensive counseling for prophylactic salpingectomy. Therefore, the investigators aimed to assess the driving factors of decision making for prophylactic salpingectomy or tubal ligation. It is planned to preoperatively have a non-validated questionnaire for the women after a detailed briefing. ;
