Hysterectomy is the most common gynecologic surgical procedure performed in the United States. Although most hysterectomies proceed without incident, complications with serious consequences may occur. This chapter reviews the incidence, predisposing factors, intraoperative risk, diagnosis, and management and prevention of complications of hysterectomy. These include hemorrhage, infection, thromboembolism, injury to viscera, and neuropathy. The prepared surgeon is familiar with anatomy, surgical risk factors, current recommendations for prophylaxis and prevention, as well as modern management of complications of hysterectomy.

Department of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Radiology, Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.
Background: Cesarean hysterectomy in the placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) remains challenging due to difficulty in controlling perioperative bleeding.
Purpose: To compare the effectiveness and safety of perioperative balloon occlusion with versus without pelvic artery embolization in PAS women who underwent a cesarean hysterectomy.
Material And Methods: A total of 26 pathological confirmed cases of PAS were retrospectively reviewed and categorized into two groups: perioperative balloon occlusion at either the anterior division of the internal iliac artery or uterine artery followed by gelfoam embolization (n = 12, study group) and perioperative balloon occlusion alone (n = 14, control group).

Department of Urology, The University of Hong Kong - Shenzhen Hospital, Shenzhen, Guangdong, China.
BACKGROUND Acute urinary retention (AUR) is relatively rare in non-pregnant women and is usually associated with lower urinary tract dysfunction, neurological issues, or pelvic organ compression. Adenomyosis is a common gynecologic condition characterized by the invasion of endometrial glands and stroma into the myometrium, often accompanied by symptoms such as dysmenorrhea and heavy menstrual periods. Although adenomyosis is common, its involvement in causing urinary retention is rare but deserves clinical attention.
