Laparoscopic radical hysterectomy with low paraaortic, subaortic and pelvic lymphadenectomy. Results of short-term follow-up.

Abstract

Laparoscopic radical hysterectomy is a safe procedure. A complete pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy and type III radical hysterectomy can be performed laparoscopically. This approach allows shorter hospitalization and carries less morbidity than the open type. Short-term follow-up (1.3-5.1 years) indicated a favorable prognosis.
