Total laparoscopic hysterectomy in 1253 patients using an early ureteral identification technique

Abstract

While complications are inevitable, even in the hands of the most skilled surgeon, they can be minimized without conversion to laparotomy by a sufficiently developed suturing technique and a precise knowledge of pelvic anatomy. The presented data indicate that our method allows for safe TLH and minimization of ureteral injury, without the use of stringent exclusion criteria.
