Overview

Minimally invasive hysterectomy (laparoscopic) is associated with shorter hospital stay, less blood loss, faster recovery, and improved early postoperative quality of life compared with open abdominal hysterectomy. However, in low-resource settings, barriers such as equipment availability, cost, and limited surgeon experience may influence outcomes.
