About the offer

Open hysterectomy surgery is the most effective way of ovarian cancer treatment in case the disease spreads from the ovaries to the womb. During an open hysterectomy, surgeons remove the patient's womb and affected ovary or both ovaries with fallopian tubes. About 80% of patients prefer to remove both ovaries. A patient might decide to keep an intact ovary, but most doctors recommend removing both ovaries and the womb to decrease the probability of possible complications and relapses. Unfortunately, the patient won't have the ability to become pregnant after the hysterectomy. Surgeons make an extended cut under the patient's belly button and localize the affected organs. Then, they remove the womb and diseased ovary (or ovaries) with a fallopian tube. Also, they check the nearest tissues and organs to spot and resolve co-related issues. At the very end, all wounds will be stitched up, and an aseptic dressing will be placed on top. Open hysterectomy always performs under complete anesthesia. Typically, surgery can take up to 4 hours. Right after the operation, a patient must stay in bed for some time. Also, post-surgery care for up to two weeks is essential to avoid most complications and prevent adverse effects.
