Laparoscopic hysterectomy is a minimally invasive surgery to remove the uterus using a few small incisions in the abdomen. A thin tube with a camera, called a laparoscope, is used to help the surgeon see inside and guide the procedure. Compared to traditional abdominal hysterectomy, this method usually means less pain, smaller scars, and a faster recovery, allowing most patients to return to normal activities sooner.
