Laparoscopic Salpingo-Oophorectomy
Definition
Laparoscopic salpingo-oophorectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves the removal of one or both fallopian tubes (salpingectomy) and ovaries (oophorectomy) using a laparoscope, a thin tube with a camera and light at the end. This procedure is typically performed to treat various gynecological conditions, such as ovarian cysts, ectopic pregnancy, or cancer.
