Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

In the past ten years, laparoscopy and laparoscopic hysterectomy has been developed and perfected. This method incorporates all the advantages of vaginal hysterectomy with abdominal hysterectomy. The laparoscope allows the gynecologist to view the abdominal cavity and perform surgery while avoiding a large abdominal incision and scar. As a result of this development, gynecologists have an alternative to abdominal hysterectomy when vaginal hysterectomy is contraindicated
