A member asked:
What is the definition or description of: total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
See below: Removal of uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes and ovaries through an abdominal incision. If you are a candidate and do not have cancer, you may be able to have your hysterectomy done robotically and laparoscopically. These methods usually have a shorter recovery time.
