Conclusion Hospitalisation and convalescence can be reduced considerably after abdominal hysterectomy Choice of analgesia has less influence on length of stay Patient education is of major value in fast track surgery
Focus in the future Improved perioperative treatment with reduction of nausea and vomiting Homogeneous postoperative restrictions and advice Continuous revision of routines Out-patient abdominal hysterectomy?
