Objective To investigate the clinical value of laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy(LAVH).Methods A total of 125 cases of benign uterine diseases were freely divided into two groups: 65 cases was given LAVH(LAVH Group) and 60 cases was given traditional total abdominal hysterectomy(TAH Group).Results The operation time was 127?4.1 min in the LAVH Group and 70?1.7 min in the TAH Group(t=99.669,P=0.000).The blood loss was 80?23.1 ml in the LAVH Group and 190.8?53 ml in the TAH Group(t=-15.339,P=0.000).The incidence of postoperative complications was 30.8%(20/65) in the LAVH Group and 58.3%(35/60) in the TAH Group,with significant difference between the two groups(?~2=9.621,P=0.002).Conclusions LAVH has advantages of micro-invasion,little blood loss,and quick recovery,being an ideal procedure.
