Gynaecology Leaflet: Removing Temporary Ovarian Suspension Stitches

Welcome to our Patient Information Centre

While we add more leaflets to our online library, click on the following link to see the full listing by department for PDF copies.

About our Leaflets

Procedures should only be undertaken by trained healthcare professionals and the Trust will not be liable for injury, loss or financial impairment as a result of actions taken by individuals after reading the materials.

Care has been taken to describe the treatments in a sensitive manner, however, due to their nature you may find some of the content distressing.

Depending on their format, leaflets can be downloaded in PDF as an A4 handout (to print single-sided or double-sided on long edge), A5 booklet (to print double-sided on short edge), or an A4 tri-fold document (to print double-sided on short edge). These can be saved to your device for future reference and to use in a PDF reader such as a Kindle.

Translations and Alternate Formats

We can provide interpreters for a variety of languages as well as information resources in larger print or other formats (e.g. audio, Braille) - please call our PALS team for more details or to make a request.
