Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
It is now felt that the majority of ovarian cancers originate in the fallopian tubes. Opportunistic salpingectomy has been found to decrease ovarian cancer risk by approximately 65%, with additional removal of the ovaries decreasing risk up to 98%. Using data collected under IRB #21841 and a population based statistics model we found that performing opportunistic salpingectomy during non-gynecologic abdominal surgery could decrease the incidence of ovarian cancer by 28-38%.

- Survey
- description
- Women, 18 years of age or older, who are scheduled for an abdominal procedure after being seen in the General Surgery clinic will be given a handout (attached) by clinic staff during routine pre-op counseling informing them that they may be called and asked to participate in a research survey. Women age 25 and above who are scheduled for an abdominal procedure and were seen in the General Surgery Clinic will be called and asked to complete a 5-10 minute verbal survey prior to their date of surgery. Some additional information will be gleaned from the medical record during the interview. Participation will be voluntary and all data collected will be recorded without any identifiers.

- description
- A list of women 25 or older who are scheduled for an abdominal procedure after being seen in the General Surgery clinic will be generated to include MRN, procedure date, and pocedure type. A medical record review will be undertaken of these women and we will collect information about conditions that would facilitate or hinder the ability to perform a salpingectomy. No patient interaction will occur by the study team and all data will be de-identified at the time of collection.
