Curious about opportunistic salpingectomy? Can a routine colorectal procedure safely double as a preventative measure against gynecologic cancer? With growing momentum supporting opportunistic salpingectomy during non-gynecologic surgeries, this symposium tackles the clinical, technical, and ethical considerations of this evolving practice. Join our panel of experts to examine the data driving this shift in patient care.

In this new open-floor format, attendees are encouraged to bring their questions, share institutional experiences, and discuss the practicalities of offering prophylactic salpingectomy to female patients undergoing colorectal surgery.

Don’t miss this live opportunity to connect with leading experts, gain insights, and have your questions answered in real time.
