Objective: To find out the advantages and disadvantages of ultrasonic tonsillectomy by harmonic scalpel.Design and setting: A prospective study was conducted over a period of five years; from 01.07.2005 to 30.06.2010 in Comfort Nursing Home, 167B, Green Road, Dhaka, Bangladesh.Results: Hospital admitted 540 cases of ultrasonic harmonic scalpel tonsillectomy were included and analyzed. 360 cases were male; whereas 180 cases were female in this study. 0-10 years (168 cases) were the commonest age group of study people. Complications were rare, only two cases 0.37% of secondary hemorrhage had happened and no cases of reactionary hemorrhage was reported.Conclusion: The advantages are almost no bleeding, precise dissection of tonsils, less post operative pain, reduce postoperative discomfort, earlier return to normal activities, oral feeding immediately after operation and less operative time. Key words: Ultrasonic tonsillectomy; Harmonic scalpel. DOI: 10.3329/bjo.v16i2.6843Bangladesh J Otorhinolaryngol 2010; 16(2): 91-95

ABSTRACT We report a case of a woman presenting with continuous dribbling of urine since her total laparoscopic hysterectomy with harmonic scalpel three months back. A clinical examination, three swab test and IVP confirmed a left sided uretrovaginal fistula. A ureteroneocystostomy was done and she recovered full bladder control. In this case we try to find the reasons and the finer points of harmonic use to prevent such an injury. How to cite this article Arpita D, Sharma A. Ureterovaginal Fistula after use of Harmonic Scalpel in Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy: Possible Causes and Successful Management. J South Asian Feder Menopause Soc 2014;2(2):111-112.
