Abstract:
Objective To analyze incidence,pathogenesis and treatment of the complications of transvaginal hysterectomy(TVH)collected during past six years,and to discuss the possible methods of prevention.Methods The patients involved in present study were admitted and underwent the transvaginal hysterectomy in the General Hospital of PLA from Jan.2000 to Jun.2006.The data of complications occurred at intra-or post-operation were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among all of the 1990 cases with TVH,complications occurred in 75 cases,the incidence of complication was 3.77%,including 21 cases of bladder injury(1.06%),5 cases of ureter trauma(0.25%),6 cases of rectal injury(0.3%),30 cases of vaginal stump inflammation(1.51%),8 cases of vaginal stump haematoma(0.4%),2 cases of intra-abdominal hemorrhage(0.1%),2 cases of vaginal narrowness(0.1%)and 1 case of intestinal obstruction(0.05%).The bladder injury and vaginal stump inflammation almost toke the two third of total cases.Some complications were got correction by surgery appropriately during or after the operation when injuries were found.Some cases were managed by conservative treatment.All of the patients with complications were healed without any sequelae.The organ injuries occurred more easily in the cases with pelvic adhesion or less movable large uteri,such as the cases with the history of pelvic operation,the endometriosis or the lower segment myoma.Conclusions The organs adjoined to uterus were easily damaged by TVH during the performance of operation,and the corresponding complications are common after the operations.The operator should familiar with the pelvic anatomy,master the skilled surgical techniques and suitably control the indications of the TVH.With the improvement of techniques in TVH and the research of new instrument applied in this procedure,the incidence of complications in TVH would be further reduced.
