Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Which type of surgery is better for hysterectomy for a 45 year old patient with menorrhagia, open surgery or laparoscopy?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Laparoscopic hysterectomy is better due to minimal pain, minimal blood loss, minimal infection, clear visualization of organs and minimal postoperative hospital stay.
