“…However, we did find statistical significance for some ancillary outcomes, such as increased operative time, increased estimated operative loss, and increased preoperative and postoperative hospital stays. Similar results were reported in pre-laparoscopic era by Heaney [24] Campbell [25] and after introduction of laparoscopy by Agostini et al [5] who succeeded to perform NDVH in 96.2%(50/52) of nullipara compared to 99.7% (292/293) of the parous patients [P = 0.06,relative risk (RR) = 1.04 (0.98-1.09)]. Sheth [3] reported that of 7324 NDVH, 750 out of them were nulliparous of which 640 or 82% had a successful NDVH without laparoscopic aids.…”

“…Campbell wrote in 1946 37 that… the bulk of a uterus to be removed is not a contraindication to the vaginal route … Within limits, his words are as true today as they were then. Considerable enlargement of uterine size should not be looked upon as a contraindication to vaginal hysterectomy and should certainly not be used to justify the use of abdominal or laparoscopic surgery.…”
