The most common indications for hysterectomy are symptomatic uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and uterine and pelvic organ prolapse. The procedure can be performed by vaginally or abdominally and with laparoscopic assistance. Choosing the perfect method the gynecologist should take into consideration how the procedure can be performed most safely to fulfill the needs of the patient. In the last few years the number of the laparoscopic procedures has been increasing.
