Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The open abdominal approach may be used for an ovarian mass; a fixed or enlarged uterus; exploration; inflammatory disease; and most malignant lesions of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. This approach permits inspection of pelvic and abdominal organs and lymph glands for biopsy or treatment.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Pelvic washings are obtained after the surgeon examines the ovaries to rule out neoplasm. The pelvic fluid is obtained and sent to pathology to test for cancer cells.
