About this document
Understanding TAH-BSO Procedures is a document available to read on EtoBox.
TAH-BSO is the surgical removal of the uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes, and ovaries through an abdominal incision. It is commonly performed for cancer, severe pelvic pain from conditions like endometriosis, or heavy bleeding from fibroids. Risks include increased risks of bladder problems, cardiovascular disease since estrogen levels fall, and osteoporosis without the protective effects of estrogen on bone density.
