hiszterektómia

HisztereKtómia is the surgical removal of the uterus. It is a common procedure performed for various gynecological conditions. There are different types of hisztereKtómia depending on the extent of the surgery. A total hisztereKtómia involves the removal of the entire uterus, including the cervix. A subtotal or supracervical hisztereKtómia removes the main body of the uterus but leaves the cervix in place. A radical hisztereKtómia is a more extensive surgery that removes the uterus, cervix, surrounding tissues, and upper part of the vagina, and is typically performed for certain types of cancer.

The decision to undergo a hisztereKtómia is usually made after other less invasive treatments have failed or are not suitable. Common reasons for performing a hisztereKtómia include uterine fibroids, endometriosis, adenomyosis, abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic organ prolapse, and gynecological cancers. The procedure can be performed through an abdominal incision, a vaginal approach, or laparoscopically.

Recovery time varies depending on the type of hisztereKtómia and the surgical approach. After a hisztereKtómia, a woman will no longer menstruate and will not be able to become pregnant. Hormonal changes can occur, especially if the ovaries are also removed, which may necessitate hormone replacement therapy. Potential risks associated with any surgery, such as infection, bleeding, and adverse reactions to anesthesia, are also associated with hisztereKtómia.
