CHICAGO – Dr. Rosanne M. Kho discussed patient selection for vaginal approaches in an interview with Dr. Daniel M. Breitkopf of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., at the annual meeting of the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
Dr. Kho of the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix noted that there are only a few contraindications to the vaginal approach and emphasized the importance of incorporating lessons from robotic and minimally invasive surgery into vaginal hysterectomy. Dr. Kho warned of an impending health care crisis as a result of inadequate training in vaginal approaches.
