Abstract

Hysterectomy is the most effective treatment for symptomatic myoma with no possible recurrence. Hysterectomy for myoma is associated with a high rate of patient satisfaction (95%). Quality of life is globally improved by hysterectomy, as is sexuality with less pelvic pain, asthenia, urinary symptoms and impaired mental health. Vaginal and laparoscopic routes should be preferred to diminish blood loss, hospital stay and postoperative pain. Patients with hysterectomy are at twice as much risk of requiring surgical treatment for incontinence later on. Stress urinary incontinence must be looked for during the preoperative history-taking.
