Uterine extirpation Complete

A hysterectomy is an operation to remove the uterus along with the cervix and upper part of the vagina. This surgery can be performed for both medical and cosmetic reasons. It is prescribed to women suffering from malignant tumors of the uterus and appendages, as well as in the presence of fibroids, endometriosis, adhesions in the pelvis and in the case of other diseases requiring radical surgical treatment.

A complete hysterectomy can be performed in several ways, including removal of the uterus through an incision above the pubis or removal through an incision along the side of the abdomen if access to the uterus is limited by scars or adhesions. Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages, so surgeons choose the method that best suits the patient’s individual characteristics and medical indications.

Advantages of complete hysterectomy:

1. Reducing the risk of recurrence of the disease: Removal of the uterus ensures the removal of all malignant cells and prevents the spread of cancer to other pelvic organs.

2. Improved quality of life: For women who suffer from pain and discomfort associated with diseases of the mammary glands or uterus, extirpation can reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.

3. Potential Cosmetic Benefits: In some cases, complete hysterectomy may leave faint scarring. Treatment of such scars improves the appearance of the genitals. However, this depends on the individual body's ability to repair tissue.

Flaws:

- Complete removal of the uterus means that a woman loses her ability to bear children in the future. - Extirpapia can lead to bleeding and other complications.
