Total abdominal hysterectomy, including incomplete vaginectomy, with para-aortic and pelvic lymph node dissection, with or without removal of the fallopian tube(s), with or without removal of the ovary(s)

Hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus. This surgery may also involve removing the cervix, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. It is important to remember that the uterus’s main function is to provide a safe environment for the fetus to grow and develop during pregnancy. In addition, at a certain time during the menstrual cycle, the lining of the uterus (endometrium) is shed and bleeding occurs. Therefore, as mentioned, after a hysterectomy and hysterectomy, women cannot get pregnant or have their periods. In a total hysterectomy, the entire uterus, including the cervix, is removed. In a partial hysterectomy, also known as a subtotal or supracervical hysterectomy, the upper part of the uterus is removed while the cervix is ​​left intact. A radical hysterectomy, which is usually performed for some gynecological cancers, involves removing the uterus, cervix, upper part of the vagina, and surrounding tissues such as lymph nodes. Total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy also involves removing the fallopian tubes and ovaries at the same time as removing the uterus.
