Summary

Prophylactic (Opportunistic) salpingectomy is a cost-effective strategy recommended for reducing the risk of ovarian cancer at the time of gynecologic surgery in women who have completed childbearing. Similar evidence for cesarean section is growing. However, salpingectomy refers to the surgical removal of a female reproductive organ. Some women may have hesitations about salpingectomy with regard to religious concerns, reduced self-image, tubal reanastomosis or lack of knowledge.

The investigators aimed to explore the underlying factors that motivate women for either decisions.
