Abdominal Hysterectomy and Bilateral Salpingo-oophorectomy

This stock medical exhibit depicts an abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy through a series of illustrations. The first illustration demonstrates the incision site and the illustration directly below that displays the resulting exposure. The illustration to the right of these demonstrates the mobilization of the uterus. Next is the removal of the ovaries and uterus from the pelvis. Finally the last two images show the use of sutures to close the vaginal and abdominal walls.
