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.
