Abstract
The methods of hysterectomy for intrapelvic benign disease include total, subtotal, la-paroscopic-assisted transvaginal, and SACSIH operation. There have been 298 cases of SACSIH operation for benign uterine or pelvic diseases at the Chonbuk National University Hospital from November 16, 1992 to March 31, 1997. Patients were 41.8 years old on the average ranging from 29 to 50. Their indications cover uterine myoma(211), adenomyosis(37), uterine myoma with pelvic adhesion(16), uterine my- oma with endometriosis(11), and others(23), the uterine myoma being the most common. Both CIN and CIS is excluded after the full evaluation of the cervical disease through Pap. smear, cervicography, ECC biopsy, and HPV typing etc, and the consent of patient is secu- red. The modified SACSIH operation, when compared with other simple hysterectomy oper- ation, has the following advantages;1) minimal surgery, 2) easy adaptation, 3) avoidance of stump cancer, 4) rapid recovery and 5) less postoperative care as far as psychosomatic posthysterectomy problems are concerned. One of the new equipment for new modified technique is the Electro-Surgical Unit system with Electrode for endocervical canal resection. This is developed at this hospital as a part of the G-7 project supported by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. It is made of electrode and rod from electrosurgical unit system and operated by high frequency of current. Thus, we introduce, herein, the modified SACSIH operation and propose the postopera- tional scoring system to estimate postoperative sequelae and to help carry on personal well- being in terms of sexuality and normal life.
