What is Lavh BSO?

Bilateral Salpingo-Oophorectomy (BSO) is the removal of cervix, uterus and both ovaries and fallopian tubes in one surgical procedure. In LAHV, a small incision is made on the abdominal wall to permit the laparoscope to enter the abdomen or pelvis.

What is the difference between TLH and LAVH?

Gynecologists perform LAVH, because they have already undergone training for vaginal hysterectomy, and TLH requires technical expertise and a longer learning period,7 which could have affected the result of this study.

How long is a laparoscopic hysterectomy with bilateral Salpingectomy?
