Laparoscopic Suspension Procedures

Uterine suspension is indicated for dyspareunia secondary to severe uterine retroversion in the absence of other cul-de-sac disease and for selected cases of severe endometriosis involving the cul-de-sac and rectum. At laparoscopy, adhesions, endometriosis, and hydrosalpinx can be corrected and the uterine suspension accomplished during the same operation. Preview Unable to display preview. Download preview PDF.
