Funded Activity Summary

Removal of the uterus (hysterectomy) is the most commonly performed major surgical procedure in women (30,000/yr in Australia). Internationally, only about 25% of hysterectomies are still performed through an open abdominal approach, compared to 40% in Australia. This means that too many women in Australia will suffer unnecessary side-effects, pain and long recovery, keeping them away from their family and usual tasks longer than necessary.
