One hundred and ninety-three patients undergoing transvaginal hysterectomy for cicatrix uterus (study group), 200 patients receiving transabdominal hysterectomy for cicatrix uterus (control group Ⅰ), and 200 patients having transvaginal hysterectomy for non-prolapsed uterus (control group Ⅱ) were retrospectively analyzed. In comparison with the control group Ⅰ, the study group showed a significantly reduced operation time and the average volume of blood loss (P < 0.01). Moreover, patients in the study group had shorter postoperative recovery time (P < 0.01) . The incidence of postoperative fever was decreased in the study group. There was no significant difference in complications of the vaginal wound between the three groups (P 0.05). This investigation demonstrates that transvaginal hysterectomy might be feasible and safe in removing cicatrix non-prolapsed uterus.
