[Clinical Value of Prophylactic Salpingectomy in Hysterectomy due to Uterine Benign Lesions]

To explore the clinical value of resection of bilateral fallopian tubes in patients with benign uterine diseases who received (laparoscopic) hysterectomy or subhysterectomy through the postoperative pathologic analysis of resected fallopian tubes.

A retrospective analysis was conducted to review the histopathological examination results in 1 272 women who underwent (laparoscopic) total hysterectomy or subtotal hysterectomy and the removal of bilateral fallopian tube simultaneously due to uterine leiomyoma, adenomyosis and other benign lesions from December 2010 to December 2015.

Of the 1 272 patients, laparoscopic resection was underwent in 1 005 patients (79.01%) and laparotomy in 267 patients (20.99%). In the attachment area, 334 patients (26.26%) had tenderness signs, and 401 patients (31.53%) had signs of thickening. Total 2 498 fallopian tubes were removed. There were 1 654 tubal with no obvious abnormal appearance (66.21%), 636 tubal with lumen part of the uplift (25.46%), 128 fallopian tube with congestion and swelling (5.12%), 80 fallopian tube atrophy adhesions (3.20%). Pathological.

showed 2 386 (95.52%) fallopian tubes with chronic fallopian tube inflammation, 988 (39.55%) of fallopian tube cyst, 80 (3.20%) of normal fallopian tube, 78 (3.12%) of tubal effusion, 48 (1.92% ) of tubal hyperplasia, 4 (0.26%) of tubal benign tumor, 8 (0.32%) of tubal mucosa atypical hyperplasia change and 2(0.08%) of tubal cancer. In the 10 cases of fallopian tube cancer and atypical hyperplasia, 8 had obvious changes of chronic inflammation in the contralateral fallopian tube, including 7 cases of atypical hyperplasia and 1 case of fallopian tube cancer.

Prophylactic salpingectomy can prevent the occurrence of tubal inflammation and removal cancer incentives.
