但是不是任何人都需要結紮或全切的,得根據實際情況和家族史(某高風險基因類型).

Dear Mayo Clinics:
Is it true that ovarian cancer may actually start in the fallopian tubes? Will having a tubal ligation lessen my chance of developing ovarian cancer? I have a family history of the disease and am a BRCA1 carrier.
Answer:
Recent research seems to suggest that some of the cells that may form one type of ovarian cancer come from the fallopian tubes. Other research has consistently shown that tubal ligation decreases the risk of developing ovarian cancer. But it's actually not clear if those two findings are related to one another.
