Effect of bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy on the overall survival of premenopausal patients with stage I low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma; a National Cancer Database analysis.

As BSO is associated with long term health effects in this patient population OP could be considered in selected women with stage I LGESS. PMID: 32354469 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
