Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

 

Hysterectomy is the removal of uterus with or without the ovaries. Most of the hysterectomies can be completed by vaginal route. In women with large uterus, large or multiple fibroids, adenomyosis, adhesions  due to previous surgeries or tubo-ovarian masses a laparoscopic approach may be preferred. In such cases, laparoscopy gives the benefit of small incisions, in contrast with long cuts made in open surgery. This leads to less post-operative pain, early mobility and short hospital stay.

Most of the patients can be discharged within 24 to 48 hours after surgery.
