Laparoscopic Hysterectomy with Removal of Ovaries - Part 1 of 4

A narrated, full-length total laparoscopic hysterectomy and removal of both ovaries for fibroids and pelvic pain. A Ligasure device is used to seal the vessels. Laparoscopic suturing is performed to close the vaginal apex after the uterus and cervix are removed. The entire procedure took approximately 35 minutes and is shown in its entirety in Parts 1 - 4. The patient went home right after surgery and can return to work in about 2 weeks.

@lyricspint ... I'm so very, very sorry for your loss. -KS

A vaginal hysterectomy is faster, safer, causes less pain and increases patient satisfaction!

Get informed.

Read the relative clinical statistics on the British Medical Journal.

@fastandeffective Thanks for your opinion. (As a urogynecologist, I too am a fan of vaginal hysterectomy.)

Im only fourteen and I have had problems with my ovaries for almost four years now and my doctors were talking about this procedure, im so scared!TT-TT

[DrKevinStepp]

@XbabyXloveXu BE CAREFUL. at your age, I would make sure you get a few opinions from different doctors before you have surgery.
