  • Title: Severe complications caused by retained tissue in laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy.
    Author: Lieng M, Istre O, Busund B, Qvigstad E.
    Journal: J Minim Invasive Gynecol; 2006; 13(3):231-3. PubMed ID: 16698531.
    Abstract:
    In our department, laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy has gradually replaced hysterectomy by laparotomy in patients with a benign condition and no history of cervical dysplasia. During the last year, we experienced serious complications in two patients because of inadequate removal of the tissue in the morcellator procedure. These cases are presented and discussed in this case report.
