Types of Hysterectomies

Written by: Henry Zuniga, MD

Dear Dr. Zuniga,

Can you explain the different types of Hysterectomies?

In Simple terms, a Hysterectomy is the removal of the Uterus. It can be performed through an incision in the adbomen called an Abdominal Hysterectomy. It can also be performed through an incision in the vagina. This is called a Vaginal Hysterectomy. A

Laparoscopically Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy is performed through an incision in the vagina with the assistance of a Laporoscopic Camera inserted through the umbilicus.
