Primary Ovarian Insufficiency
Conditions
Keywords
Primary ovarian insufficiency, In-vivo activation
Brief summary
The OLIVA device will enable to perform shallow slashes on the ovarian cortex in patients undergoing oophorectomy. Prior to the resection of the ovary from the pedicle we will perform 5 parallel slashes 3 cm long. following oophorectomy investigation by the pathologist as to the depth of cuts and proximity to blood vessels and later.
Detailed description
The OLIVA device is built of 5 parallel razor blades enclosed by protective cap
Interventions
OLIVA device is a laparoscopic device with a standard handle and a tip built of 5 parallel razor blades enclosed by protective cap opened by a separate button. This device will enable to perform shallow slashes on the ovarian cortex following the grasping of the ovary without damaging other abdominal and pelvic organs

Exclusion criteria
* Women with ovarian malignancy * Women with polycystic ovarian syndrome
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Depth of cuts and closeness to blood vessel | Up to 30 days after procedure | The pathologist will measure the ovarian tissue after oophorectomy. The pathologist will assess whether the cuts into the cortex are superficial or penetrating the cortex into the medulla of the ovary. Another assessment is proximity of the cuts to ovarian vessels. The pathology report will aggregate the results of all measurements and will assess the safety of the OLIVA device |
