ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the postoperative recovery of vaginal and abdominal hysterectomies of non-prolapsed uterus ,in order to offer the advantages, surgical indications and contraindieations ,surgical characteristic and diflieuhy of transvaginal hysterectomies of non-prolapsed uterus. Methods To retrospectively analyze 480 cases transvaginal hysterectomies (TVH) and 440 cases transabdominal hysterectomies (TAH) with similar indications in the corresponding period, and compare the operation duration ,blood lost during the procedure, postoperative analgesic, morbidity, recovery time of the function of intestine, activity time of getting up and hospitalization between those surgi-ca] techniques. Results There were no intraoperation and postoperative complications in group TVH. In group TAH more blood was lost(P <0.01) ,the function of intestine recovered more slowly(P <0.01) ,more analgesic needed, more morbidity noted (P < 0.01), activity time of getting up is much longer(P < 0.01). The hospital stay after opera-tion was much shorter in group TVH(P <0.01). No statistical difference was found between the two groups in terms of the duration(P 0.05). Conclusion TVH is minimal invasive surgery that include small trauma,reduced pain, no abdomen scar and quick recovery. So the patients are happy to accept it.
