Laparoscopically Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy, Laparoscopic Hysterectomy, and Bilateral Salpingo-Oophorectomy

The use of hysterectomy, one of the most frequently performed major surgical procedures, for treatment of endometriosis doubled between 1965 and 1984. This rise, which exceeded the increase for any other indication, probably reflected not only an increased recognition of endometriosis, but also an increase in the frequency and/or severity of disease.1,2 About 75% of all hysterectomies are accomplished abdominally and 25% vaginally.3,4 Preview Unable to display preview.
