Ovaries are present on both sides of the uterus and play an important role in the production of hormones. These messengers control the production and releasing of the eggs during the month cycle in women. 

Types of Oophorectomy

It involves the process of removing ovaries, and it is of various types and are mentioned below:

  • Unilateral Oophorectomy: Only one ovary is removed.
  • Bilateral Oophorectomy: Two ovaries are extracted.
  • Salpingo Oophorectomy: It involves the removal of single or both ovaries and fallopian tubes.
  • Partial Oophorectomy: Either one or both ovaries are removed.
  • Prophylactic Oophorectomy: It removes a single or both ovaries along with the fallopian tubes.

There are many reasons why this procedure is required to treat the following conditions:

  • Removing cancerous tumor in the ovaries
  • Infection the ovaries due to pelvic inflammatory disease
  • Abnormal growth of tissue because of endometriosis
  • Benign growth of cells

Your surgeon will conduct an operation on the basis of your medical situation. There are some types of Oophorectomy which are as follows:-

  • Laparoscopic: A small laparoscope camera is inserted by making a small cut in the belly button of an individual. An incision is made by using surgical cutting tools. Then the camera will capture inside images of the pelvic area and which is ideal for less cutting process. 
  • Vaginal: This surgery is required when the whole uterus has to be removed by the process of hysterectomy. The chance of getting an infection is less.
  • Robotic-Assisted: A doctor will make a few small cuts, and then the robotic camera and arms are inserted to remove ovaries. It is done in a controlled way. This surgery is developed to reduce surgical scars, less pain, and patients recover rapidly.
  • Laparotomy: Your ovaries are removed by making a large cut on your belly. This operation may take a long period to recover, and the probability of an infection is less.
  • Open Surgery: It is an old way to do an operation by making a large cut in the belly. It makes it easy to see the full view of tissues, organs, and blood supply arteries.
