The route of hysterectomy: a comparative study between abdominal hysterectomy (AH), non descent vaginal hysterectomy (NDVH), and laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH)

Comparison of laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy and total abdominal hysterectomy

  Abstract   Background: Hysterectomy is the second most common major surgery procedure   done after cesarean section by gynecologists in many countries and the most common   procedure is total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH). The incidence of laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) performed for benign lesions has progressively increased in recent years. Our objective was to compare...

Since the availability and widespread use of laparoscopic hysterectomy, the mode of hysterectomy is an issue of debate in cases of non prolapsed uteri, amongst proponents of vaginal and laparoscopic surgery.

Guidelines incorporating uterine size, mobility accessibility, and the pathology confined to the uterus (no adnexal pathology or known or suspected adhesions) have been proposed as selection criteria for vaginal hysterectomy. This study was perfo...
