Ovarian cyst removal and hysterectomy. Close-up of a 75-year-old female patient undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (TAH-BSO) to remove bilateral ovarian cysts. This procedure will remove her entire reproductive system (ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus). Here, the intestines can be seen outside of the body.
