The analysis of vaginal hysterectomy results depending on the uterine size.

Vaginal hysterectomy is an operating technique which is relatively easy to perform and safe for the patients because it involves a slight decrease of morphotic blood elements and a small number of mid- and postoperative complications. Vaginal hysterectomy is not a contraindication in case of large uteri, even those of more than 1000 g; however, in such cases, a longer operating time and an increased number of perioperative complications must be taken into consideration.
