Preface

All aspects and techniques of hysterectomy are already well described in many publications, but to be adequately experienced, the surgeon needs extensive clinical operative practice. As such, this book discusses the techniques of hysterectomy, how to choose the appropriate method and potential complications of this surgical procedure. It also presents a brief history of hysterectomy and possible future directions in the field.

I would like to thank all the authors for their valuable contributions. I am also grateful to Author Service Manager Ms. Mia Vulovic and the commissioning editors at IntechOpen for their support and advice.
