Is removal of the fallopian tubes with delayed removal of the ovaries a safe alternative for the simultaneous removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries in women at high inherited risk for ovarian cancer?
TUBA-WISP II stands for: TUBectomy with delayed oophorectomy as Alternative for risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy in high-risk Women to assess the Safety of Prevention. The TUBA-WISP II study investigates whether early removal of the fallopian tubes with delayed removal of the ovaries (experimental method) is as safe as the simultaneous removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries (standard method) in women at high inherited risk for ovarian cancer. Safe means that the risk of ovarian cancer is equally low after both methods.
