After the general morbidity reduction at the beginning of the century and the routine use of prophylactic antibiotics, a hysterectomy was generously, sometimes to generously indicated in the middle of the 20th century. This might be one of the major reasons why the procedure got a bad reputation. Furthermore, in the last decade, several new treatments for benign uterine pathologies have been developed which can be proposed to the patients instead of performing a hysterectomy. Therefore, the question might be asked, if nowadays there are still some indications for a hysterectomy or if the procedure is obsolete.
