Do a laparoscopic salpingo-oophorectomy. It was benign!!! If you really feel the need to perform a bilateral oophorectomy, do it laparoscopically. Why take the uterus? If you really, really feel the need to remove the uterus, take it laparoscopically too. What is it with these huge incisions when the general surgeons do it all with minimally invasive techniques. GYNECOLOGY NEEDS TO BE A MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGICAL PROFESSION.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
