A member asked:
Any precautions to take, risks for 86 yo female to undergo abdominal vs vaginal hysterectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The recovery will likely be much quicker and easier after a vaginal hysterectomy. The recovery may be even quicker and easier after a robotic assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy.
