Who is the Candidate For Laparoscopic Supracervical Hysterectomy?
Generally, all patients get back to their normal lives a week or two weeks at most after the surgery. Some even play tennis a month after such hysterectomy! This is very significant, because in laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy the recovery period is 28 days, not to mention the classical hysterectomy, with its usual recovery period of 28 days in the least, up to 42 days at the most. Apart from the obvious benefit to the patients, this can cut the costs significantly, say from more than $9200 to a half, about more than $4300. With the number of hysterectomies performed every day all over the world, the savings just grow astronomically.
