Introduction. Laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy is a surgical procedure with uterine artery ligation followed by vaginal removal of the uterus. The first laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy was performed by Harry Reich in 1989. Material and Methods. The sample included 24 patients who underwent surgery at the Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Clinical Center of Vojvodina in Novi Sad in the period 2014 - 2017. The most common indications for laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy included mild uterine prolapse and uterine fibroids (15 patients, 62.5%). The surgery was carried out in two stages: the first, laparoscopic stage and the second, vaginal stage. The laparoscopic stage included mobilization of the bladder, ovaries and uterus to the level of uterine vessels. In the second stage, the cervix was approached vaginally and detached from the urinary bladder, after which the uterus with cervix and adnexa were removed through the vagina. Results. The average age of patients was 56.8 years; on average, the surgeries lasted 140 minutes and the mean blood loss was 190 ml. Two (8.3%) patients experienced bladder and ureteral injuries which were resolved by urologists. Laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy was the only procedure performed in 5 (20.8%) patients, whereas it was combined with anterior and/or posterior colporrhaphy in 14 (58.4%), with pelvic lymphadenectomy in 3 (12.5%) patients, and with uterine morcellation in 2 (8.3%) patients. Conclusion. There are no published controlled trials related to the use of laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy and total laparoscopic hysterectomy in Serbia. This paper presents the preliminary results of the laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy in 24 patients, comparing them with other techniques of hysterectomy conducted at the Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Clinical Center of Vojvodina in Novi Sad in the period 2014 - 2017. Laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy is a good option for surgical treatment of patient with combined pathology of genital organs.

Laparoscopic Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy

Hysterectomy is the commonest gynecologic operation performed not only for malignant disease but also for many benign conditions such as fibroids, endometrial hyperplasia, adenomyosis, uterine prolapse, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. There are many approaches to hysterectomy for benign disease: abdominal hysterectomy, vaginal hysterectomy, laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) where a vaginal hysterectomy is assisted by laparoscopic procedures that do not include uterine artery ligation, total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) where the laparoscopic procedures include uterine artery ligation, and subtotal laparoscopic hysterectomy (STLH) where there is no vaginal component and the uterine body is removed using a morcelator. In the last decades, many new techniques, alternative to hysterectomy with conservation of the uterus have been developed. They use modern technologies and their results are promising and in many cases comparable with hysterectomy. This paper is a review of all the existing hysterectomy techniques and the alternative methods for benign indications.

The University

Between 1993 and 1994, 368 women underwent hysterectomies for benign disorders at the University of Kiel. Of these, 58.7% were performed either by pelviscopic or by laparotomy Classic Intrafascial Supracervical Hysterectomy (CISH). Of the remaining, 14.8% were performed by abdominal hysterectomy, 13.6% by Intrafascial Vaginal Hysterectomy (IVH), 12.2% by Vaginal Hysterectomy (VH), and only 0.05% by Laparoscopic Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy (LAVH). Comparative data of these six surgical techniques concerning patients characteristics, indications for operation, histological features, blood loss, operating time, hospital stay, uterine weights and postoperatively used analgesics are described.
