Overview

Brief Summary

Total laparoscopic hysterectomy is a procedure that is performed each time more often. One of the problems described for this procedure has to do with the closure of the vaginal vault, increased surgical time when suture laparoscopically, complications such as dehiscence of the dome, infections, hematomas and dyspareunia. A prospective study will be conducted to compare two different techniques for closure of the vaginal vault.
