Despite the advantages of a decreased risk of epithelial-cell ovarian cancer and the extremely minimally invasive nature of the procedure, combined salpingectomy and endometrial ablation is a potentially underused procedure in the United States to treat abnormal uterine bleeding and desired sterilization. The lack of utilization of this combined procedure might be based on factors other than clinical considerations, including slow acceptance and adoption of Committee Opinions expressing the value of salpingectomy over sterilization. Committee Opinions and randomized clinical trials have demonstrated the benefit of salpingectomy for sterilization and epithelial-cancer risk reduction, and there could be an additional protection against postablation tubal sterilization syndrome. This Commentary discusses the advantages and rationale for consideration of expanding usage of the combined approach.
尽管输卵管切除术联合子宫内膜切除术具有降低上皮细胞性卵巢癌风险的优势,且手术具有极低的侵入性,但在美国,该联合手术在治疗异常子宫出血和实现绝育方面的应用可能不足。这种联合手术未得到充分利用,其原因可能并非基于临床考虑,包括对表达输卵管切除术优于绝育术价值的委员会意见接受和采用缓慢。委员会意见和随机临床试验已证明输卵管切除术在绝育和降低上皮癌风险方面的益处,并且可能对消融后输卵管绝育综合征有额外的保护作用。本评论讨论了扩大联合手术应用的优势和理由。
