PROCEDURE

Laparoscopic surgery

Surgery used to remove your child's ovary tissue is called laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic surgery employs a telescope-like instrument called laparoscope. The laparoscope will be put into your child's belly through a small (about half an inch) cut just below the belly button. Two or three other cuts may be made to allow for other instruments to help remove one of the ovaries. The surgeon will then look at both ovaries before the removal of one. Both of your child's ovaries must appear normal and be free of any masses in order to complete the surgery. The surgeon will choose which ovary will be removed at the time of surgery. This type of surgery is likely to last for 30 to 65 minutes.
