title: [Residual ovary after hysterectomy. Is castration at peri-menopause necessary to prevent ovarian cancer?].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Evaluation of the risk of ovarian carcinoma associated with uni or bilateral adnexal preservation following gynecological surgery for benign lesions.
  
  
  METHODS
  Gynecological surgery history of 190 patients with a primary ovarian carcinoma diagnosed and/or treated in the Navarre Teaching Hospital Group between 1981 and 1991 inclusive.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Two patients, i.e. 1%, had undergone conservative surgery prior to the diagnosis of ovarian neoplasia.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Ovary left in place after conservative surgery undergoes malignant change less than in the population as a whole.
