Hysterectomy involves the removal of the uterus (womb) and generally the cervix. This may be either through the vagina as a vaginal hysterectomy, vNOTES (a natural orifice lapararoscopic or keyhole procedure), traditional keyhole surgery (a laparoscopic hysterectomy) or in some cases as an open surgery (via a larger incision on the abdomen similar to a caesarean in most cases).
