In this chapter, we describe total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) using retroperitoneal and retrograde technique: it combines the retroperitoneal coagulation of the uterine artery and the retrograde approach to the pelvic organs, as in oncological surgeries. We report our experience in applying this modified TLH with 3-mm instruments and without uterine manipulator, in order to demonstrate its safety and feasibility.
