Opportunistic salpingectomy in women undergoing hysterectomy: Results from the HYSTUB randomised controlled trial

Addition of opportunistic bilateral salpingectomy during hysterectomy did not result in a larger effect on ovarian reserve when compared with hysterectomy alone, neither did it affect surgical outcomes. Therefore, opportunistic salpingectomy seems to be a safe procedure in premenopausal women undergoing hysterectomy for benign gynaecological conditions.
