What is a vaginal hysterectomy assisted with laparoscopy?
A vaginal hysterectomy is a way to take out the uterus through the vagina. The uterus is the muscular organ at the top of the vagina. Babies develop in the uterus, and menstrual blood comes from the uterus. In a vaginal hysterectomy assisted with laparoscopy, the doctor uses a tool called a laparoscope to help with the removal. A laparoscope is a thin metal tube with a light and tiny camera.
