The literature in laparoscopic hysterectomy, both robotic and non-robotic, reports a complication of vaginal closure disruption after hysterectomy higher than with abdominal surgery. Reasons hypothesized for this phenomenon include colpotomy (vaginal incision) technique, vaginal closure technique, and types of suture. At present, no further follow up studies have been done to test some of these hypothesis. In light of the rapid adoption of this approach to hysterectomy, more data on this issue will help the physician in counseling patients regarding complications, as well as helping surgeons choose materials and techniques in their hysterectomies which will diminish the chance for this unfortunate complication, which causes pain, hospitalization and excess morbidity after the original surgery.
