The main goal of this study is to compare between total Laparoscopic hysterectomy proceeded by Uterine artery cauterization at its origin and conventional total Laparoscopic hysterectomy regarding: bleeding , operative time , intra operative time and follow up post operative.

The most common non-pregnancy-related gynecological procedure performed for women is a hysterectomy. (Uwais et al,. 2024 )In Germany, the incidence of hysterectomy ranges from 2.13 to 3.62/1000, while in the United States, it is 5.4/1000. In the US, about 600,000 hysterectomy surgeries are carried out each year. (Harvey et al ,. 2022 ) Fibroids, adenomyosis, endometriosis, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, uterine prolapse, and premalignant and malignant lesions are among the many indications for a hysterectomy. (Singh et al ,. 2024 ) Traditionally , hysterectomy has been done abdominally or by vaginal route . In the present era , Laparoscopic hysterectomy has recently received a considerable respect as a favourable hysterectomy technique . ( Bartels et al ,. 2020 ) Laparoscopic hysterectomy is a safe , workable technique , provides minimal post operative discomfort, shorter hospital stay , rapid convalescence , early return to daily activities. ( Pepin , K. et al ., 2020 ).

Selection of route of hysterectomy can be influenced by size , shape of the vagina and uterus, accessibility of the uterus, extent of extra uterine disease , surgeon experience, available hospital support, whether the case is emergent or scheduled and preference of the informed patient . ( Panda et al ,. 2022 )

.As Laparoscopic surgery becomes more advanced and widely applied, the absolute contraindications to laparoscopy are diminishing . Patient limitations to Laparoscopic surgery can be both anatomical and physiological .

Adverse anatomical limitations include difficult access to the abdomen , obliteration of the peritoneal space , organomegaly , intestinal distension and the potential for cancer dissemination.

The major physiological obstacles to safe Laparoscopy include increased intracranial pressure, abnormalities in cardiac output and gas exchange in the lung , chronic liver disease and coagulopathy . These anatomical and physiological conditions were formerly considered absolute contraindications to laparoscopy, they are now considered only relative contraindications.( Madhok et al ,. 2022 )

. The uterus receives the majority of its blood supply from the uterine artery, a branch of the internal iliac artery. In order to reach the uterine cervix, the uterine artery is first found 2.5 cm lateral and superior to the ureter before crossing it anteriorly to its medial side .( Selcuk I et al ,. 2018).

The ureter is more susceptible to injury during oophorectomy and hysterectomy because of its close relationship to the ovary, where it lies beneath the insertion of the infundibulopelvic ligament at the pelvic brim, and its relationship to the uterine artery, where it passes inferior to the uterine artery.( Lescay et al ,. 2024 )

Although total Laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH ) is generally safe .There is a potential risk of complications may occur . Excessive blood loss during TLH is still an issue which need blood transfusion especially in case of large uteri . ( Saad _ Naguib M et al , .2022) .

During TLH, the uterine arteries (UAs) must be closed effectively.Closing UAs at the uterine level or at the origin from the internal iliac artery are the two main options . The decision is solely based on the preferences and opinions of the surgeon.( Uccella et al ,. 2021) .

There is a shortage in data that compare two techniques , therefore , Current study will be conducted to compare feasibility, duration of the surgery , estimated blood loss , post operative complications during conventional Laparoscopic hysterectomy versus early Uterine artery cauterization at its origin .

Inclusion Criteria: Age of the patient is more than 35 y . Non malignant pathologies including fibroids, endometrial hyperplasia, Dysfunctional Uterine bleeding not responding to medical treatment.

Good general condition of the patient ( American society of Anesthesiologists "ASA" score 1 , 2 , 3 ( Horvath et al ,. 2021) .

Uterine size is less than 20 weeks by fundal level . -

Exclusion Criteria:Age of the patient is less than 35 y . Gynecological malignancies . Contraindications for laparoscopy as any medical condition worsens by peumo peritoneum or Trendelenburg position as severely compromised cardiopulmonary status .

Patients with American society of Anesthesiologists score 4 or more . ( Horvath et al ,. 2021) Uterine size is more than 20 weeks by fundal level .
