Abstract
INTRODUCTION The present randomised controlled trial was conducted to compare haemostatic efficiency, operative time, and overall performance of the electrothermal bipolar vessel sealing (EBVS) system with conventional suturing in abdominal hysterectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS The trial was designed with standard parallel arms, i.e., vessel sealing and suture ligature arms. Sixty patients were block randomised into either arms with 30 patients in each. A hand-held vessel sealing instrument was used to perform a hysterectomy in the vessel sealing arm and the quality of the uterine artery seal achieved at the first attempt was graded on an ordinal scale of 1-3 to quantify haemostatic efficiency. Operative time, intra-operative blood loss, and peri-operative complications were compared between the two arms. RESULTS Significantly reduced mean operative time (26.97±8.92 vs 33.67±8.62 minutes; p=0.005) and intra-operative blood loss (111±53.31 mL vs 320±193.90 mL; p=0.001) was observed in the Vessel Sealing Arm compared to Suture Ligature Arm. Of total 60 uterine seals (from bilateral uterine artery transaction in 30 hysterectomies in the Vessel Sealing Arm), 83.34% were Level 1 with Complete Seal and no residual bleeding, 8.33% were Level 2 or Partial Seals with minimal bleeding, requiring the use of vessel sealers for a second time, while 8.33% had Seal Failure (Level 3) with significant bleeding requiring additional re-security of stumps with sutures. Modal pain scores on the first three postoperative days and duration of hospital stay were significantly less in the Vessel Sealer Arm, reflecting reduced postoperative morbidity. Outcomes were comparable across operators. CONCLUSION Vessel Sealing System gives superior surgical results with lesser operative time, minimal blood loss, and reduced morbidity.

Abstract
Objectives To compare the use of Electrosurgical bipolar vessel sealing LigaSure™ small jaw instrument (LSJI) with conventional suture ligation in total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH). Methods In this retrospective study 80 patients who underwent hysterectomy in the Gynecology and Obstetrics Department of Gulhane Education and Research Hospital between April 2017 and August 2018 were included. Two different groups that underwent Electrosurgical bipolar vessel sealing LigaSure™ small jaw instrument (LSJI) and conventional suture ligation in hysterectomy operation were analyzed retrospectively. The parameters evaluated and compared between the two groups include operation time, intraoperative blood loss, duration of hospitalization and incision length. Results Among the parameters we compared between the two groups, there was no statistically significant difference between the amount of intraoperative blood loss (p:0.68) and the incision length (p:0.65). Among the parameters we compared between the two groups, a statistically significant difference was observed between the operation time (p:0.016) and the duration of hospitalization (p:0.01). Conclusion Our comparison of LSJI vs. conventional ligation in hysterectomy revealed a significant difference only in operative time, where surgeries involving conventional ligation were shorter. On the other hand, incision length was evaluated in our study which has not been addressed in previous studies. There is also a need for multi-center studies that include more patients and evaluate cost-effectiveness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to determine one-day hysterectomy's criteria of acceptability and feasibility. MATERIALS AND METHODS We realized an observational descriptive survey based on questionnaires which were sent to gynecologic surgeons. Criteria were defined as major when rate of favorable responses was superior to 70%. RESULTS Main major criteria were: definition of an age limit (80.3% of respondents), of a Body Mass Index limit (70%), no history of coronary artery disease (77.6%), no anticoagulant therapy with curative intent (95.4%) or antiplatelet (71.1%), no history of sleep apnea (77.4%), surgery within two hours (85.1%), definition of intraoperative bleeding limit (87.5%), no laparotomy (97.4%), no intra abdominal drainage (77.6%), presence of an accompanying at home (99.3%), pain evaluation (97.4%), absence of nausea before leaving (75.5%) and spontaneous urination (96.7%). CONCLUSION Our study determined major criteria to practice one-day hysterectomy. Decision should be based on a personalized benefice-risk balance analysis. Final decision belongs to patient, as her complete engagement is fundamental.

Hysterectomy for benign disease: clinical practice guidelines from the French College of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2016; 202:83-91.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to draw up French College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (CNGOF) clinical practice guidelines based on the best available evidence concerning hysterectomy for benign disease. METHODS Each recommendation for practice was allocated a grade, which depends on the level of evidence (clinical practice guidelines). RESULTS Hysterectomy should be performed by a high-volume surgeon (>10 hysterectomy procedures per year) (gradeC). Stimulant laxatives taken as a rectal enema are not recommended prior to hysterectomy (gradeC). It is recommended to carry out vaginal disinfection using povidone-iodine solution prior to hysterectomy (grade B). Antibiotic prophylaxis is recommended during hysterectomy, regardless of the surgical approach (grade B). The vaginal or laparoscopic approach is recommended for hysterectomy for benign disease (grade B), even if the uterus is large and/or the patient is obese (gradeC). The choice between these two surgical approaches depends on other parameters, such as the surgeon's experience, the mode of anesthesia, and organizational constraints (duration of surgery and medical economic factors). Vaginal hysterectomy is not contraindicated in nulliparous women (gradeC) or in women with previous cesarean section (gradeC). No specific hemostatic technique is recommended with a view to avoiding urinary tract injury (gradeC). In the absence of ovarian disease and a personal or family history of breast/ovarian carcinoma, the ovaries should be preserved in pre-menopausal women (grade B). Subtotal hysterectomy is not recommended with a view to reducing the risk of peri- or postoperative complications (grade B). CONCLUSION The application of these recommendations should minimize risks associated with hysterectomy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To provide clinical practice guidelines from the French College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (CNGOF) based on the best evidence available, concerning the urinary, infectious and digestive adverse events related to benign hysterectomy and the associated surgery including opportunistic salpingectomy and adnexectomy. MATERIAL AND METHOD Review of literature using following keywords: benign hysterectomy; urinary injury; bladder injury; ureteral injury; vesicovaginal fistula; infection; bowel injury; salpingectomy. RESULTS Urinary catheter should be removed before 24h following uncomplicated hysterectomy (grade B). In case of urinary catheter during hysterectomy, immediate postoperative removal is possible (grade C). No hemostasis technics can be recommended to avoid urinary injury (grade C). There is not any evidence to recommend to perform a window in the broad ligament or an ureterolysis, to put ureteral stent or a uterine manipulator in order to avoid ureteral injury. An antibiotic prophylaxis by a cephalosporin is always recommended (grade B). Mechanical bowel preparation before hysterectomy is not recommended (grade B). If there is no ovarian cyst/disease and no familial or personal history of ovarian/breast cancer, ovarian conservation is recommended in premenopausal women (grade B). In postmenopausal women, informed consent and surgical approach should be taken in account to perform a salpingo-oophorectomy. Since the association salpingectomy and hysterectomy is not assessed in the prevention of ovarian cancer, systematic bilateral salpingectomy is not recommended (expert consensus). CONCLUSIONS Practical application of these guidelines should decrease the prevalence of visceral complications associated with benign hysterectomy.
