Patient's question:
Is minimally invasive surgery suitable for total hysterectomy?Doctor's answer:
Hysterectomy via vagina is the removal of the uterus through the vagina. It was previously commonly used for patients with uterine prolapse. With the continuous improvement of gynecological surgery, it has been used clinically in recent years. It is mainly suitable for patients with anterior and posterior vaginal wall prolapse, small uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, functional uterine bleeding, and severe cervical atypical hyperplasia. Compared to the traditional abdominal hysterectomy, it has the advantages of less trauma, lighter wound pain, no interference with abdominal organs, reduced risk of abdominal infection, faster recovery of intestinal peristalsis, quicker postoperative eating, no intestinal adhesion, shorter hospital stay, lower medical expenses, and is more easily accepted by patients.
