Hysterectomy is a surgical procedure involving the removal of the uterus. Depending on the specific type of hysterectomy, it may also involve removing the cervix, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. This procedure is commonly performed to address various gynaecological conditions.

Hysterectomy is recommended for several medical reasons, including but not limited to:

1. Uterine Cancer: When cancer is present in the uterus, removal of the organ may be necessary to prevent the spread of the disease.
2. Uterine Fibroids: Non-cancerous growths in the uterus that cause symptoms like heavy bleeding and pain. Hysterectomy may be recommended if other treatments are ineffective.
3. Endometriosis: A condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, causing pain and fertility issues.
4. Chronic Pelvic Pain: When severe pelvic pain persists, and other treatments have failed, hysterectomy may be considered as a last resort.
5. Uterine Prolapse: The descent of the uterus into the vaginal canal, often due to weakened pelvic floor muscles.

A laparoscopic hysterectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure to remove the uterus. It involves small incisions and the use of a camera and specialised instruments. Unlike traditional hysterectomy, which may require a larger incision resulting in a bigger scar and a longer healing time, laparoscopic hysterectomy generally results in less pain, shorter hospital stays, and quicker recovery.

Laparoscopic hysterectomy offers several benefits, including smaller incisions, reduced pain, faster recovery, and shorter hospital stays. It also minimizes scarring and lowers the risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery.
