Abstract
|
|
Introduction:
Laparoscopic ovarian transposition is an effective method to preserve ovarian function in cancer patient who undergos pelvic irradiation. However, in usual operative procedure, the patients lose an ability to conceive naturally.
Case Report: We report a case of stage IIb uterine cervical cancer in which we performed a modified procedure of ovarian transposition. In an attempt to preserve potential ability for natural conception, we mobilized the fallopian tubes along with the ovaries by keeping the mutual proximity. Ovaries were anchored to the peritoneum outside the irradiation field. Conclusion: The procedure was safely performed under laparoscopy, and may be useful as a standard surgical procedure for the patients who desire preservation of fertility. | |
