Optimizing Outcomes in Laparoscopic Hysterectomy: An Analysis of Complications, Management Techniques, and Lessons Learned From Our Clinical Experience.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundLaparoscopic hysterectomy has emerged as a preferred surgical option for managing various gynecological conditions due to its minimally invasive nature and favorable outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the demographics, indications, complications, and recovery outcomes associated with laparoscopic hysterectomy in a cohort of patients.
methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 117 patients who underwent laparoscopic hysterectomy at a single institution. Data were collected regarding patient demographics, surgical indications, intraoperative and postoperative complications, and discharge timing. Statistical analyses were performed to assess the relationships between these variables.
resultsMost patients were between 41 and 50 years (58.1%), with a significant proportion being multiparous (47.9%). The primary indications for surgery included fibroids (42.7%) and abnormal uterine bleeding (35.0%). Intraoperative complications were low, with bladder injury occurring in 2.6% and bowel injury in 0.85% of cases. The conversion rate to open surgery was 5.1%. Postoperatively, complications such as intestinal obstruction, paralytic ileus, peritonitis, and port-site infection were reported in 0.85% of patients each, while 96.6% experienced no complications. Most patients (89.75%) were discharged within 48 hours after surgery.
conclusionThe findings of this study support the effectiveness and safety of laparoscopic hysterectomy as a surgical option for women with gynecological conditions. Despite some patients requiring extended hospitalization, the overall hospital stay and complication rates were low, reinforcing the viability of laparoscopic techniques in clinical practice. Future research should focus on larger, prospective, or randomized multicenter studies with extended follow-up periods to validate these results and assess long-term outcomes of laparoscopic hysterectomy.
