title: [Laparoscopic hysterectomy].
abstract: Our first laparoscopic hysterectomy is reported. Our report includes the following surgical actions: coagulation and dissection of the round ligament: opening of the front-large ligament; hydrodissection of the connective tissue between the two peritoneal pellicles of the large ligament; coagulation and dissection of the salpinx for tissues and uterine-ovarian vessels; dissection of the large back ligament as far as the uterines and sacrals; detachment of the bladder by means of forceps and hydrodissection; the same operations on the opposite side; visualisation of uterine vessels and dissection; dissection of uterines and sacrals; completion of the operation and removal of the ill part through the vaginal way. Laparoscopic hysterectomy or vaginal-laparoscopic hysterectomy could, in some cases, substitute abdominal hysterectomy or be less risky than vaginal operations. We point out the need for more complete laparoscopic instrumentation and more practical laparoscopic experience for surgeons and assistants.
