What Is a Hysterectomy?
A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus—and the fallopian tubes with or without the ovaries. It may be recommended for:
- Fibroids
- Endometriosis or adenomyosis
- Abnormal or heavy uterine bleeding
- Uterine or cervical cancer
- Chronic pelvic pain unresponsive to other treatments
In the past, this meant open abdominal surgery. Today, over 95% of patients at our centre in Valencia benefiting from minimally invasive (laparoscopic/robotic) procedures performed through a few small incisions—resulting in less trauma, fewer complications, as well as faster healing and a quicker return to normal life.

Frequently asked questions
Is robotic surgery better than laparoscopic?
Both are minimally invasive. Robotics adds precision for complex cases.
Will I have a scar?
Only small incisions — usually less than 1 cm — with minimal visible scarring.
Can I keep my ovaries?
Yes. Ovaries are only removed if clinically indicated and discussed in advance.
How soon can I return to work?
Most patients return to desk work within 1–2 weeks, and full activity by 4–6 weeks.
