Salpingectomy was performed by Lawson Tait in 1883 in women with a bleeding ectopic pregnancy; it is now established as a routine and lifesaving procedure [clarification needed]. Other indications for a salpingectomy include infected tubes (as in a hydrosalpinx) or as part of the surgical procedure for tubal cancer. [citation needed]
The standard surgical approach for removal of the nonviable ectopic pregnancy is by salpingectomy or salpingostomy. [6] In the case of an unruptured ectopic pregnancy, local feticidal injection can be used to remove the ectopic pregnancy.
The most common techniques for partial bilateral salpingectomy are the Pomeroy [20] or Parkland [21] procedures. The ten year pregnancy rate is estimated at 7.5 pregnancies per 1000 procedures performed, and the ectopic pregnancy rate is estimated at 1.5 per 1000 procedures performed. [5]
A Nationwide study [9] found statistically lower risk of ovarian cancer among women with previous salpingectomy when compared to the unexposed population. Bilateral salpingectomy is associated with a 50% decrease in ovarian cancer risk compared to unilateral salpingectomy (the removal of both or one fallopian tubes).
With ectopic pregnancies back in the news, here's what you need to know.
The chance of recurrent ectopic pregnancy is about 10% and depends on whether the affected tube was repaired (salpingostomy) or removed (salpingectomy). Successful pregnancy rates vary widely between different centuries,[clarification needed] and appear to be operator dependent.[clarification needed] Pregnancy rates with successful methotrexate ...
Daco estimated that the 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada, along with 10% tariffs on China, would reduce US GDP by 1.5% in 2025 and raise inflation by 0.4%. Read more: ...
The surgical removal of a fallopian tube is called a salpingectomy. To remove both tubes is a bilateral salpingectomy. An operation that combines the removal of a fallopian tube with the removal of at least one ovary is a salpingo-oophorectomy. An operation to remove a fallopian tube obstruction is called a tuboplasty.
