Instead of a large cut in the abdominal cavity (traditional surgery) four small incisions are made to remove the uterus. It is also called as Keyhole surgery.

Then a thin, laparoscope which contains telescope is inserted into the abdomen through the incision.  Camera in the laparoscope makes the surgeon view uterus, fallopian tubes and the ovaries on the wide monitor. Other necessary instruments are interested through the remaining incisions. The surgeon starts the procedure by securing and dividing the uterus blood vessels which is followed by freeing uterus from the surrounding supports even the vaginal to which the uterus is attached. Once the uterus is removed the vagina is closed, the filled in carbon-di-oxide is released and incisions are closed eventually. The overall procedure is carried under general anesthesia.
