Introduction: Dysmenorrhea and heavy menstrual bleeding are the most common symptoms in adenomyosis, in addition to infertility and chronic pelvic pain. Hysterectomy is a common treatment for adenomyosis symptoms with curative effect on heavy menstrual bleeding but with less studied effects on pain reduction.
Material And Methods: This is a nationwide retrospective register-based cohort study including all hysterectomized patients with pathology-verified adenomyosis between 1 January 2012 and 31 December 2015 with a long-term follow-up three years pre- and three years postoperatively.

Objectives: To assess whether hysterectomy in patients with endometriosis is associated with higher proportion of complications compared with patients without, and whether route of hysterectomy affects this outcome.
Study Design: This is a population-based retrospective cohort study. Data were prospectively obtained from three National Swedish Registers.

Introduction: One in three women with pelvic organ prolapse (POP) undergoing surgery have a relapse. Currently, no optimal surgical treatment has been identified for correcting a uterine prolapse. This population-based register study aims to compare the relapse rate in patients with uterine prolapse undergoing hysterectomy with suspension or uterine-sparing surgical procedures.

Introduction: In surgical repair of pelvic organ prolapse the recurrence rate is about 30% and the importance of apical support was recently highlighted. In surgical randomized controlled studies, the external validity can be compromised because the surgical outcomes often depend on surgical volume. Therefore, we sought to study outcomes of surgical treatment in patients with vaginal vault prolapse in a nationwide setting with a variety of surgical volumes.

Study Design: A retrospective case series of 14 consecutive women with a CSP and a wish for and attempts towards subsequent pregnancies, having undergone minimal invasive surgical treatment at two tertiary referral Swedish centers (Dep's of Obstetrics and Gynecology Skåne University Hospital, Lund, and Södersjukhuset, Stockholm) between 2008 and 2019. The surgery was performed by temporary intraoperative occlusion of the uterine blood supply, removal of the CSP and repair of the niche, by the use of robot assisted laparoscopy (Da Vinci surgical robot, Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA).
