Abstract
In a preceding paper the authors described a completely new approach for vaginal hysterectomy. The classical technique has been simplified, including thermal hemostasis with BiClamp, multimodal anesthesia, and ongoing research aimed at ensuring minimal trauma. The authors describe the first group of 152 patients who were treated with this new approach. The results show that it is possible to expand the range of vaginal indications while shortening the patient’s hospital stay to 1 day. Furthermore, this innovative surgery is becoming more generally accepted, resulting in better quality of life for the patients.
