Comparative Study of Electrosurgical Bipolar Vessel Sealing Using Ligasure versus Conventional Suturing for Total Abdominal Hysterectomy
Background: Hysterectomy is a common gynecological surgical intervention, which could be associated with increased female morbidity and mortality. Bleeding and pain represent two main complications associated with hysterectomy. Hemostatic measures are in a continuous development, and LigaSure could...

They were assigned to equal groups [Ligasure [A] and Conventional suturing [B]].
