A unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is a surgical procedure in which a single ovary and its connecting fallopian tube are removed. When this procedure is suggested for an ovarian cancer patient from Kissimmee, FL, she can turn to Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa to receive treatment from highly experienced surgeons. Since Moffitt is a high-volume cancer center, our surgeons have performed countless ovarian cancer surgical procedures, gaining the invaluable experience and surgical expertise needed to improve the quality of our patients’ lives.

When women turn to Moffitt for their treatment, our multispecialty team of ovarian cancer experts will review each case individually to formulate the most effective treatment plan. If our team confirms that a unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is the best course of action, our patients can receive this treatment here at our premier cancer center. Because we conduct all testing and treatment in one convenient location, Moffitt patients don’t have to worry about driving across town to visit labs or medical offices.

In addition to a unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, our experts may suggest some of Moffitt’s excellent supportive care services to help manage any symptoms or side effects. These comprehensive options may include: 

  • Spiritual support
