Introduction
Hysterectomy refers to a surgical operation to ablate the uterus, and may be done in various methods, mainly by the abdominal and vaginal approaches. Abdominal hysterectomy is done by opening up a larger incision on the lower abdomen that leads to the removal of the uterus. This conventional technique is commonly selected with larger uterine sizes, complexities, or when there are other structures of the pelvis that need to be treated. The incision is bigger and the recovery time is longer since the operations are accompanied by a lot of post-operative pain. Conversely, vaginal hysterectomy refers to a procedure that is performed by extracting the uterus using the vagina without making any incisions on the abdomen. It is the least invasive surgery, whose benefits include requiring less operating time, minimal blood loss, less hospitalization time, and a quick recovery. Vaginal hysterectomy is usually preferred in benign cases and have a smaller size of their uterus and when the anatomy allows it. The decision between the two is determined by the condition of the patient, the size of the uterus, the expertise of the surgeon, as well as particular clinical signs, to maximize safety and outcome.
