Abstract
Hysterectomy is a common surgical intervention in general surgery practice, but its performance presents challenges and potential complications. Hysterectomy can offer several advantages, such as relieving symptoms of conditions such as endometriosis, uterine fibroids, abnormal uterine bleeding or uterine cancer, improving women's quality of life. Furthermore, in cases of serious diseases of the uterus, hysterectomy can prevent future complications. This study aimed to critically review the available literature on the importance, challenges and strategies for preventing complications associated with hysterectomy. Using the descriptors "hysterectomy", "general surgery" and "surgical complications" from the DeCS database, 30 studies published between 2014 and 2023 were selected. The results highlight the importance of hysterectomy in various gynecological conditions, the challenges related to the surgical technique and strategies to prevent intra- and postoperative complications. It is concluded that an integrative approach is crucial to improve the results and safety of the hysterectomy procedure in clinical practice.
