Offer salpingo-oophorectomy with C-section in BRCA mutation carriers: gynaecologists
A case series suggests the procedures could be combined to reduce morbidity.
Prophylactic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy should be offered at time of obstetric-indicated caesarean delivery in women with the BRCA1 or BRCA2 pathogenic variants, say UK gynaecologists.
In their small case series, the doctors reported outcomes for four women aged 40-45 who underwent the combined procedure to determine safety and patient satisfaction.
