COSTA, Sara Borges; ESTELLES, Juan Gilabert  y  AGUILAR, Juan Gilabert. Intraoperative visceral and vascular injuries during total laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign gynaecological disease. Acta Obstet Ginecol Port [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.3, pp.214-219. ISSN 1646-5830.

Laparoscopic surgery is increasingly being used to perform total hysterectomy in the context of benign gynaecological pa­thology. When performed by experienced practitioners, it is a safe, effective and reproducible technique, with a high level of patient satisfaction. However, intraoperative complications that may occur are often associated with significant levels of morbidity. Ureter, bladder, bowel and vascular lesions are the main lesions which may arise from performing a total laparoscopic hysterectomy. Thus, it is essential that the surgeon is entirely familiar with the specific methods of prevention, early intraoperative diagnosis and correct therapeutic approach.
