[Current surgical practice of prophylactic and opportunistic salpingectomy in France].
CONCLUSIONS: Salpingectomy may be a preventing strategy in the low- and high-risk population. The survey's responses show that salpingectomy seems to be a current practice during benign hysterectomy for more than 40% doctors. However, there is not any change with no more salpingectomy in the population with genetic risk, or in case of endometriosis or tubal sterilization.
