Abstract

This chapter focuses on failed trial vaginal hysterectomy or trial vaginal route. This section comprises of 12 sections that are described as undiagnosed uteroabdominal band, uterocervical adhesions with abdominal wall, diminished “uterus-free” space (altered uterocervical angle), ovarian endometriosis with positive “dimple sign”, large-sized uterus, ovarian malignancy, uterine bulk impedes descent, extensive adhesions from PID (pelvic inflammatory disease) limits descent for VH, unanticipated uterine adhesions to abdominal wall-1, unanticipated uterine adhesions to abdominal wall-2, unanticipated uterine adhesions to abdominal wall-3, and parasitic myoma and inaccessible adnexa leads to laparoscopic completion of VH. Under anesthesia, the cervix was barely seen and vulsellum was applied with difficulty. Posterior vaginal wall was pulled up and stretched. When traction was applied to the cervix, it caused dimpling in the lower abdominal wall, signaling that the uterus is likely to be adherent to the abdominal wall. Anteriorly for bladder separation, getting uterocervical-broad ligament space, there was no plane of cleavage.
