No parameters were given in regard to alternatives. If surgeon were proficient with laparoscopy in a facility providing good equipment with back-up of all equipment elements and with proper anesthesia, vaginal approach would have been limited to the morbidly obese in my practice.

I'm not, but believe I probably should. There are many patients for whom it would be an useful route to consider. Have always been warned re infection rates, but couldn't confirm that from what I have seen over the years. Would be interesting to see other's comments, so I hope folks will send in their views.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
