Overview

Hysterectomy is one of the most commonly performed gynecologic surgeries in the USA. It is used for many benign conditions such as leiomyoma and abnormal uterine bleeding. Surgery may involve the removal of the cervix (total hysterectomy, TH) or its preservation (supracervical or subtotal hysterectomy, SH). Whether TH or SH is the best procedure for benign conditions is a matter of debate. Considering the lack of evidence, this study aims to evaluate long-term sexual dysfunctions, urinary dysfunctions and pelvic organ prolapse in women who underwent laparoscopic subtotal versus total hysterectomy for benign conditions.
