Surgery
- In patients without disseminated disease, surgical excision has been opted as the preferred treatment because of it's fairly good prognosis. [1]
Surgical therapy is done by:

- Laparoscopic methods
Surgical modalities include:
- Total hysterectomy with unilateral or bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy
- Unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy
- Extirpation of struma ovarii
- For malignant struma ovarii, infra-colic omentectomy is preferred.
- Surgical intervention is not recommended for the management of [disease name].
