I think this is a judgement call.. For purposes of oral examination, you want to give the sequence of interventions as classically described. It demonstrates your familiarity with all of the manuevers. However, I think it would be easy to find criticism with ligating hypogastrics in a woman who has already been sterilized...

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.
