A member asked:
During the removal of an ovarian dermoid, what are common complications (during surgery) that would result in the loss of the entire ovary?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Size: Attachments, pressure on ovary and compromise tissue, and reduced blood supply can all make the removal operation more tedious. As an aside, your surgeon will discuss risks, benefits with you.
