Abstract
Although laparoscopic hysterectomy is now being performed worldwide, few reported data are available on the associated morbidity and mortality. Between December 1990 and September 1993, 220 women underwent laparoscopic hysterectomy at the Melbourne Gynoscopy Centre. Complications occurred in 35 (15.9%). Among these were anterior abdominal wall vessel injury in 5 patients, bladder injury in 5, febrile illness in 13, secondary hemorrhage in 4, temporary ureteral obstruction in 4, and Richter hernia in 1.
