Hysterectomy - Abdominal, Vaginal and Laparoscopic (No Patient Instructions) - Medical Animation

This 3D medical animation shows, in a very general manner, how three different types of hysterectomy (surgical removal of the uterus) surgeries are performed. The different types of surgery include the abdominal, vaginal and laparascopic hysterectomy. The latter is performed with the aid of a laparascope inserted into the abdomen and umbilicus (belly button, navel), which greatly reduces external scarring and improves healing time.
