Introduction
[edit | edit source]
Hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus. [1]It could be performed through the abdominal route, vaginal route, laparoscopically or combined method.[2]
Indication
[edit | edit source]
- Uterine Leiomyomas[3]
- Uterine Bleeding[3]
- Endometriosis[3]
- Adenomyosis[3]
- Endometrial hyperplasia[3]
- Uterine Cancer[3]
- Pelvic Inflammatory Disease[3]
- Massive Postpartum Hemorrhage [3]
Types of Hysterectomies[edit | edit source]
- Total Abdominal Hysterectomy - Removal of the uterine body and the cervix[4]
- Supracervical Hysterectomy - Removal of the fundus and body of the uterus but excludes the cervix [4]
- Hysterectomies are associated with removal of the ovaries and fallopian tubes ( Bilateral salphingo-oophorectomy)[4]
- Radical Hysterectomy
Surgical Approaches for hysterectomy[edit | edit source]
- Abddominal Hysterectomy[5] - This route allows inspection of other pelvic organs and surrounding tissue. This route is used for carcinoma or to remove a large fibroid uterus. The uterus is accessed through a Pfannenstiel( Bikini-line) incision.
- Vaginal Hysterectomy[5]- An incision is made in the anterior vaginal wall to access the uterus and cervix. This approach is usually used for non-malignant conditions of the uterus, particularly in cases of uterine prolapse.
- Laparoscopic Hysterectomy[5] -
- Robotic-assisted Hysterectomy[5]
Complications[edit | edit source]
- Vaginal Cuff Cellulitis[7]
- Infected Pelvic Hematoma or Abscess[7]
- Wound Infection[7]
- Urinary Tract Infection[7]
- Venous thromboembolism[7]
Physiotherapy Management[edit | edit source]
Short Term Goals :
- Patient education
- Pain reduction
- Improve the strength of abdominal muscles
- Improve respiratory efficiency
- Bed Mobility
Long Term Goals :
- Maintain the strength of abdominal muscles
- Maintain the strength of pelvic floor muscles
- Make patient functionally independent
Pre-Operative Physiotherapy :
- Patient Education- Education regarding route of surgery, prognosis, post-surgical complications, the importance of physiotherapy
- To prevent respiratory complications- Active Cycle Breathing Technique (ACBT), Supported coughing
- To increase the strength of pelvic floor muscles - Pelvic floor exercises
- To increase strength in abdominals - Pelvic tilting in crook lying
- Mobility - Early ambulation , Bed mobility
Post Operative Physiotherapy
