“…Furthermore, it is known that the Endo-GIA stapling device requires significantly less time than electrocoagulation [7]. However, some centers do not remove a whole ovary for ovarian tissue cryopreservation; instead, they remove only half to two-thirds of one macroscopically normal ovary's cortex.…”

IntroductionSeveral options are available for preserving fertility before cytotoxic treatment, including ovarian tissue cryopreservation. Most reported surgical techniques include electrocoagulation. Our hypothesis is that avoidance of electrocoagulation may decrease ovarian cortex injury during cryopreservation procedures.Case presentationWe report a laparoscopic technique of whole-ovary removal without coagulation using Endo-GIA forceps and clips. Laparoscopic ovariectomy was performed for cryopreservation in a 37-year-old Caucasian woman with breast cancer and for whom chemotherapy was planned. The procedure was completed quickly and without complication. This Endo-GIA procedure was of short duration with a short period of ischemia before freezing.ConclusionLaparoscopic ovariectomy using the Endo-GIA stapling device procedure without coagulation may diminish ovary injury before ovarian cryopreservation.

Objective To compare the progress of patients undergoing abdominal hysterectomy using either surgical staples or conventional sutures for the ovarian and uterine pedicles. Design A prospective randomized controlled study. Setting A teaching hospital gynaecology unit. Subjects 24 women presenting for abdominal hysterectomy. Interventions Routine abdominal hysterectomy was undertaken. Uterine and ovarian pedicles were either ligated conventionally or secured by surgical staples. Main outcome measures These were: duration of operation, blood loss, length of hospital stay and recovery parameters. Results There were no difficulties in applying the staples in this pilot study and there was no difference in the outcomes between the two methods. Conclusions Although the use of surgical staples is an attractive principle, this pilot study could not demonstrate an advantage to justify the cost. Further evaluation may be indicated.
