Laparoscopic ovarian transposition prior to pelvic radiation for gynecologic cancer

Abstract: This study evaluates a novel technique of laparoscopic ovarian transposition performed by Gynecologic Oncologists prior to pelvic radiation for gynecologic cancer. A retrospective review was completed of all patients that underwent laparoscopic ovarian transposition from February 2007 to June 2017 at one tertiary care cancer. The technique involves salpingectomy, followed by retroperitoneal dissection to move the ovaries lateral to the hepatic and splenic flexures of the colon. Normal ovarian function was defi… Show more

“…OT is a surgery to transpose the ovaries out of the field of radiation to protect them from radiation damage. 13 Hoekman et al 11 noted that the 5-year ovarian survival rate was 60.3% in patients who underwent OT before RT, whereas all patients who received RT without OT had an ovarian failure, which is similar to our study. The degree of ovarian damage and ovarian failure is affected by the radiation dose of ovaries.…”

“…MIS can be used to carry out ovarian transposition in young women with cervical cancer who wish to conceive with the aid of assisted reproduction and surrogacy, thus enabling them to have genetically related children. Ovarian transposition has been described using open [114], laparoscopic [115] and robotic methods [116]. The preservation of ovarian function has been reported to be 65% in women who have had surgery followed by pelvic radiotherapy [114].…”

“…The preservation of ovarian function has been reported to be 65% in women who have had surgery followed by pelvic radiotherapy [114]. Higher rates of ovarian preservation have been described with techniques involving transposing the ovaries laterally to the hepatic and splenic flexures and thereby avoiding the pelvic radiation field [115]. The preservation of ovarian function does not directly translate into successful pregnancy outcomes [117].…”
