It is possible in this way to close thewound with a minimum exposure of raw edge, a matter of very great importancein the avoidance of future pelvic adhesions. Special care must be taken whencompleting the suture in uniting the stump of the tube to the stump of theinfundibulopelvic ligament not to leave a clumsy mass of tissue and for any reason this is unavoidable, the round ligament can be drawn over themass and stitched so as to prevent its exposure and possible adherence to theintestines.

After performing a salpingo-oophorectomy the uterus should always besuspended by a round ligament operation, even if its position at the time ofoperation is perfectly good, for if this is not done a later retroversion is almostinevitable. SALPINGECTOMY Exsection of the tube without removal of the ovary is an operation used inthe conservative surgery of pelvic inflammation. Where this operation is doneit is not enough to amputate the tube at the uterine cornu; it must include aresection of the interstitial portion of the tube to prevent the possibility of alater exacerbation of the disease in the tubal isthmus. In order to hold the tube in position for easy dissection the edge of the meso-salpinx between the fimbriated extremity and the ovary is seized by a clampor pressure f
