    Laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) offers lower complication rates and shorter recovery compared to abdominal hysterectomy.

  • 2

    This study analyzed 1683 cases of LAVH performed over 10 years for benign gynecological conditions without genital prolapse.

  • 3

    Preoperative adhesions were present in 34.3% of patients, indicating a significant prevalence in those undergoing LAVH.

  • 4

    The study aims to assess the impact of adhesions on surgical outcomes in LAVH, contributing to improved patient management.

  • 5

    LAVH allows for additional laparoscopic interventions, enhancing surgical exploration and treatment of pelvic conditions.
