The investigators compare between Vaginal Hysterectomy and Laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy in cases of large uteri weighing more than 280 gm regarding operative and Postoperative outcomes
Study setting : Ain Shams University Maternity Hospital Study Design : Pilot prospective randomized clinical trial Study population: The patients will be recruited from women presenting to the outpatient clinic of Ain Shams University Maternity Hospital planned to undergo hysterectomy for benign cause according to inclusion/ exclusion criteria which will be mentioned later.
Study duration : the study will be carried out during the period from August 2014 to August 2016.
Sample size: total of 50 cases will be included in the study to be divided into two groups, the first group will undergo vaginal hysterectomy and the second will undergo Laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy.
intervention: after approval of the ethical committee, a detailed explanation of the procedure will be informed to the participant and after her approval to involve in the study, an informed written consent will be taken. Detailed medical history will be obtained from all participants recruited in the study along with complete clinical examination and necessary laboratory and radiological investigations. Each patient will have a case record form in which the data regarding history, examination, investigations, operation costs and postoperative events will be recorded
