Neurovascular Anatomy Of The Para-Cervical/ Upper-Vaginal Area For Radical Hysterectomy

Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video clarifies the neurovascular anatomy of the parasympathetic upper vaginal area, demonstrating its simplicity rather than complexity. It details surgical steps including isolation and division of vessels like the deep uterine vein, pelvic splanchnic nerve, and uterine artery, and describes the separation and rotation of the ureter to reveal the Okabayashi paravaginal space. The procedure exposes key structures such as the inferior hypogastric plexus and allows safe division of the uterine branch and vaginal blood vessels. The video highlights that understanding these anatomical layers facilitates precise surgical removal of the uterus while preserving crucial nerves and vessels.
