Abstract
A common terminology for the use of laparoscopy at hysterectomy is nec
essary so that collected data can be interpreted and conclusions appli
ed. Many procedures are termed laparoscopic hysterectomy regardless of
the extent to which laparoscopy is performed. We divided hysterectomy
into seven steps and propose a common nomenclature based on the numbe
r of steps performed laparoscopically.
