The available evidence indicates that at the time of operation resulting in loss of reproductive ability, the removal of one ovary in women too young for complete castration has definite prophylactic value in avoiding future ovarian neoplasms. Objections to this procedure are few and appear to be a small risk compared to the protection gained. In our material the most common, important neoplasms were found more often on the left side. Consequently, there seems to be more prophylactic advantage in removing the left ovary. Our investigation has offered no good reason why the left ovary should be more often involved than the right. |
