The authors analyse in retrospect a continuous series of 208 hysterectomies, for lesions other than invasive cancer, in order to try to define precise objective criteria for the choice of the vaginal way. What essentially commands the choice of this way are: high parity, large size of the uterus, the existence of prolapsus, effort-linked urinary deficiency and no annexial pathology.
