Hysterectomy…..Which Route?

Abstract: Objective We designed this study to focus on women with mobile uteri benign no larger than 14 weeks, who would ordinarily be considered candidates for vaginal hysterectomy and compare the outcomes when abdominal routes were chosen. We also compared the intra and post operative complications, requirement for blood transfusion, length of hospital stay, between abdominal and vaginal route of hysterectomy. Method In a simple randomized prospective comparative study 200 consecutive patients requiring hysterectomy f… Show more

“…However, in our study, we did not have any major intraoperative complications. Studies by Chakraborty et al and Shanthini et al encountered bladder and ureteric injuries in the abdominal hysterectomy group [ 5 , 8 ]. This difference may be attributed to the skill of the operating surgeon and the complexity of the case.…”

“…[ 1 2 ] Even though abdominal hysterectomy is more invasive, it is still the most common route for hysterectomy, especially in rural areas, because firstly the patients are unaware of the benefits of laparoscopic hysterectomies, secondly the cost of surgery through abdominal route is less, and thirdly most of the surgeons find it easy and convenient to perform. [ 3 ] Minimally invasive surgeries such as nondescent vaginal hysterectomy (NDVH), laparoscopy-assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH), and total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) offer cosmetic benefit, and recovery is faster over the routine abdominal hysterectomy but requires more technical skills. [ 3 ]…”
