Abstract

ABSTRACT
Hysterectomy is the commonest gynaecological surgery performed in women. Present study involved 43
patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign condition. Out of 43 patients vaginal hysterectomy were
performed in 26 cases and rest of the cases were performed by abdominal route. Out of 26 vaginal
hysterectomy a case was converted into abdominal hysterectomy because of preoperative urinary bladder
injury. Keeping all complications in mind we suggest that selective women requiring a hysterectomy for
menstrual disorders from fibroid uterus or DUB may be offered a choice for vaginal hysterectomy.

Key Words: Hysterectomy, uterine leiomyoma.
