MONET FERNANDEZ, Yadiel Esteban; CORA ABRAHAM, Jesús; HERNANDEZ DEL SOL, Celina y FUNDORA MADRUGA, Guillermo. Videolaparoscopic Hysterectomy. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 2020, vol.59, n.3 Epub 10-Nov-2020. ISSN 1561-2945.
Introduction:
Hysterectomy is the second most frequent type of major surgery among women. Three types of hysterectomy are currently used: vaginal hysterectomy, abdominal hysterectomy, and minimally invasive hysterectomy. This last variety began to be performed in Matanzas at the end of the last decade.
Objective:
To evaluate the clinical-epidemiological characteristics of patients hysterectomized.
Methods:
A descriptive and prospective study was carried out. The population was made up of all the patients operated on by this surgical technique. The whole population itself was taken as a sample (96 patients).
Results:
There was predominance of the age group 40-49 years (44 patients), the black race (51 patients), diagnosis of uterine myomatosis (87 cases), surgical time of 61-90 min (57 patients), and hospital stay of up to 24 hours (93 patients). There were three complications and the number of converted cases was 0.
Conclusions:
Videolaparoscopic hysterectomy is implemented safely and effectively. It was performed predominantly in women over 40 years of age and diagnosed with uterine myomatosis. Average surgical time is greater than that reported in the scientific literature. Hospital stay is 24 hours as an average. The patients returned to their usual activities quickly.
