“…[8][9][10] It is well known fact that 70-80% of hysterectomies done for benign condition are through abdominal route. Vaginal hysterectomies are usually performed for prolapsed case 11 With adequate vaginal access and technical skill, good uterine mobility vaginal hysterectomy can easily be achieved.…”

“…The laparoscopic approach is an acceptable treatment modality in the current gynecologic practice. 9 Jahan et al performed a prospective comparative study on the efficiency and outcome of LAVH, TAH, and vaginal hysterectomy on 750 patients. Their results showed that LAVH and vaginal hysterectomy were more beneficial to patients because of less estimated blood loss, less analgesia use, less intraoperative and postoperative complication rates, less postoperative pain, more rapid recovery, and shorter hospital stays.…”

Background: Routes for hysterectomy include abdominal, vaginal, laparoscopic, or combined approaches. Traditional abdominal hysterectomy (AH) is one of the most common gynaecological surgical procedures in the treatment of benign gynaecological diseases. However, AH as the most invasive procedure, is associated with some limitations such as abdominal trauma, intraoperative and postoperative complications, and slow postoperative recovery.Methods: All the patients attending Gynecology outpatient department with symptoms were assessed with history and clinical examination by the Consultant Gynecologist and investigated. Those requiring hysterectomy were analyzed by the Consultants for the approach depending on the indication for the surgery, nature of the disease and patient characteristics.Results: The most common indication for hysterectomy was prolapsed uterus (29.4%) followed by menstrual disorders (25.8%), leiomyoma (22.9%), and PID (12.3%).Conclusions: Hysterectomy is successful in relieving pain, carcinomas and obstetric complication.

“…There has been a marked increase in the use of laparoscopic access and assistance to carry out abdominal surgery, including hysterectomy (3). Since, Harry Reich in 1989 reported the first laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy, many centres worldwide have described their experiences with the use of laparoscopic access in performing hysterectomy, varying from the laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) to the total laparoscopic hysterectomy, (TLH), and the laparoscopic subtotal hysterectomy (LSH), (4). Fernandez et al in 2000 reported a major decline in the rate of abdominal hysterectomy in favour of the laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy (5).…”
