    Adrienne Perfilio, Lauren Walters, Nikita Baral Ovarian remnant syndrome (ORS) is seen in patients who have previously had both ovaries or fallopian tubes removed (salpingo-oophorectomy). It is caused when ovarian tissue is unintentionally left behind in surgery. This leftover tissue may still act like an ovary and produce hormones but can also develop ovarian diseases like cysts or other benign or cancerous growths. This tissue may also enlarge, putting pressure on surrounding structures. Symptoms of ORS might include pelvic pain, a pelvic mass, painful intercourse, abnormal uterine bleeding, or bladder/bowel problems. The diagnosis is based on hormonal evaluation and pelvic imaging. Treatment usually consists of surgically removing the remnant tissue. 2024
