- Abstract
Objective : To evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (LSH) by single port access (SPA) with transcervical morcellation. Study design: Observational study conducted between September 2010 and March 2012 in two departments of Gynaecology. Forty women who required hysterectomy underwent LSH by SPA with transcervical morcellation. Results: LSH by SPA with transcervical morcellation was completed successfully in 37/40 (93.5 %) patients. Mean operating time was 128 (±55) min and mean hospital stay was 3.5 (±1) days. The mean of uterus weight was 310 (±214) g. The mean estimated blood loss was 250 (±110) ml. Four women (10 %) required a second surgical intervention including two cases of endocervical bleeding. Conclusion: LSH by SPA with transcervical morcellation is a feasible procedure.
