Abstract

Hysterectomy, a major surgical procedure, is often an unacceptable procedure for many patients from rural areas who attend small rural hospitals. Near total endometrial resection/vaporization is a more acceptable procedure which can control menorrhagia. This procedure can be carried out with standard urology instruments.
