Different methods were in use when
hysterectomy was indicated:
1. Abdominal hysterectomy
2. Vaginal hysterectomy
3. Endoscopic hysterectomy
4. Laparoscopic-assisted vaginal
hysterectomy
Hysterectomy until the 20th Century

times. The procedure was performed by

The vaginal route should always be
considered when hysterectomy is
indicated, due to
• quicker recovery
• lack of scars
• shorter hospital stay

A „non-stage“
Peritoneum is left open (enterocele repair is
optional)
![Page 48: New Trends in Surgical Education The Ten Step Vaginal ... · The Ten Step Vaginal Hysterectomy“ Step 1 Incision of the vaginal wall Starting under the urethra, a drop-like incision](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022060708/6073d5a83513b57840594978/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
▪ Suturing the peritoneal layers is unnecessary
▪ Peritoneum does not heal by approximation
of its edges
▪ New peritoneum is formed within 24 – 48 h
from the coelum cells
▪ Sutures are providing focal points for adhesions

In a study of 49 patients who underwent the Ten-Step
Vaginal Hysterectomy (TSVH) method or the Heaney
method, the TSVH group had a significantly shorter
operation time (P = 0.001), shorter hospital stay (P = 0.020)
and shorter time of analgesics requirement (P = 0.006).

The advantages ...
▪ Makes sense anatomically and physiologically
▪ Requires less pain killers
▪ Is easy to learn, perform and teach
▪ Saves theatre time

We expect any new presented surgical method to
bring upon added value to the existing ones, but
no evaluation can be done without standardization
of the compared groups.

Key Messages
1. In an optimal Vaginal Hysterectomy, no superfluous step should be taken, and no step should be lacking.
2. There is direct correlation between any surgical step to the clinical outcome.
3. Only standardized method will enable meta-analyzis and comparison among surgeons and institutions.
