Uterine cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the cells of the uterus. It is a common gynecologic cancer that primarily affects women who have gone through menopause. The most common symptom of uterine cancer is abnormal vaginal bleeding.
Laparoscopic radical hysterectomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing the uterus, cervix, and surrounding tissues through small incisions in the abdomen. The procedure is typically performed using a laparoscope, a thin, lighted instrument that allows the surgeon to view the inside of the abdomen.
Most patients will be monitored at the hospital for 1-2 days after the procedure. Pain medications may be prescribed to manage any discomfort or pain. Patients are advised to rest and avoid strenuous activity for 2-3 weeks following the procedure. Most patients can return to their normal activities within 4-6 weeks after the surgery.
