چکیده

Laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy refers to the use of a laparoscope to allow the performance of hysterectomy through a vaginal means that would have otherwise required an abdominal approach. Laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy refers to removal of the uterus utilizing a laparoscope but leaving the cervix in place. Laparoscopic myomectomy refers to removal of fibroid tumors from the uterus and subsequent removal of the fibroids from the pelvic cavity by morcellation or extraction using minimally invasive techniques. Myolysis refers to laparoscopic destruction of fibroid tumors using either laser or electrical energy so that they do not recur.
