Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical value of the YSZ-1 uterine manipulator in total laparoscopic hysterectomy.Methods Total laparoscopic hysterectomy was employed in a total of 78 women by using the LigaSure,ultrasonic scalpel,and the YSZ-1 uterine manipulator.The anterior fornix was opened and the manipulator was placed on the lip of the cervix.Then the uterus was completely removed.Results The operation was completed smoothly in all the 78 patients.The operating time was 45~90 min(mean,63 min),and the intraoperative blood loss was 40~100 ml(mean,65 ml).No urinary tract injuries,vaginal bleeding,or other postoperative complications occurred.The length of postoperative hospital stay was 4~7 d(mean,5.3 d).Follow-up examinations in the 78 patients for 3~6 months(mean,4 months) showed that the vaginal wound normally healed up. Conclusions Use of the YSZ-1 uterine manipulator in total laparoscopic hysterectomy makes the procedure easier and safer.The YSZ-1 uterine manipulator is a useful laparoscopic instrument.
