Prophylactic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy are done to prevent the development of cancer - when there is a genetic predisposition.
General
- The pathology yield in prophylactic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomies is significant but modest; in series of 26 prophylatic surgeries (BRCA1 22 individuals, BRCA2 4 individuals) there were 2 in situ carcinoma and 2 atypical proliferations.[1] All of the pathology was in BRCA1 carriers.
