VH should be the preferred surgical approach in patients with enlarged myomatous uteri. When VH is not feasible, LAVH should be considered an alternative to MiniLPT. Further controlled prospective studies are required to confirm these results.

The effectiveness of TBA as a possible treatment of HMB is confirmed. However, LSH showed a definitive improvement of the symptoms, and a better life quality profile. Further controlled prospective studies are required for identifying the best surgical approach in women with HMB.

LNG-IUS can be considered as first option for the treatment of HMB unresponsive to drug therapy, and it is particularly suitable for women who want to preserve an acceptable menstrual flow. LSH may be considered the best surgical option in women with HMB unresponsive to any medical treatment.
