Nerve sparing Radical Hysterectomy - How do I Preserve the Nerves

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video demonstrates a nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy for a 35-year-old woman with stage 1 squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix. The procedure involves a lower transverse abdominal incision, preservation of ovaries, careful dissection of lymphatic tissues and vessels, and meticulous identification and preservation of autonomic nerves to maintain bladder and sexual function. Key steps include ligation of the uterine artery, dissection of the ureteric tunnel, and transection of uterine branches while sparing bladder branches. The operation concludes with vaginal transection and suturing. This complex surgery achieves oncological goals with improved functional outcomes.
