Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of physiotherapy added to medication and surgery in the treatment of ovarian residual syndrome（ORS）.Methods A total of 56 patients treated at a single hospital of Benxi between March 2008 and March 2014 were included in the study.All patients experienced ORS after bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.Patients were randomized into the physiotherapy group（routine treatment plus abdominal and lumbosacral physiotherapy）or the control group（routine treatment alone）

28 patients in each group.The visual analogue scale（VAS）score

Onodera prognostic nutrition index（OPNI）

neutrophilto-lymphocyte ratio（NLR）were measured at baseline and after 10 days of treatment;while the levels of hormones[follicle-stimulating hormone（FSH）

luteotropic hormone

estradiol（E2）

progesterone（P）

and testosterone（T）]were determined at baseline and after 2 months of treatment;All of these parameters were compared between the two groups.Results At baseline

the VAS score

OPNI and NLR were comparable between the two groups（P>0.05）.After 10 days of treatment

the VAS score and NLR were significantly decreased compared with their baseline levels in both groups（P<0.05）;the VAS score and NLR were significantly lower in the physiotherapy group than those in the control group（P<0.05）.At Day 10

the OPNI was significantly increased compared with its baseline level in both groups（P<0.05）;the OPNI was significantly higher in the physiotherapy group than that in the control group（P<0.05）.In terms of FSH

LH

E2

P and T levels

no significant differences were observed between the two groups at baseline（P >0.05）.After 2months of treatment

the FSH and LH levels were significantly increased compared with their baseline levels in both groups（P<0.05）;the FSH and LH levels were significantly higher in the physiotherapy group than those in the control group（P<0.05）.Also at this time point

the E2

P and T levels were significantly decreased compared with their baseline levels in both groups（P<0.05）;the E2

P and T levels were significantly lower in the physiotherapy group than those in the control group（P<0.05）.The overall effective rate in the physiotherapy group was 92.86%

significantly higher than that in the control group（71.43%）（P<0.05）.Conclusion When added to medication and surgery in treating patients with ORS

abdominal and lumbosacral physiotherapy is associated with improved clinical efficacy and a lower risk of complications

supporting its use in clinical practice.
