Furthermore, many national and international institutions are
reporting much lower rates of abdominal hysterectomies of five to
20 percent. Expert minimally invasive surgeons have open hyster-
ectomy rates of five percent or less.
As young professionals we
were looking for a firm we
could build a great working
partnership with and found it
at Harding, Shymanski. They
have helped us in everything
from personal accounting, to
transitioning and buying our
practice, and now taking
care of our business
accounting and questions.
We really love working with
Harding, Shymanski.
Patient awareness is another important factor in lowering the
number of abdominal hysterectomies. More than ever before, pa-
tients are researching their surgical condition and seeking out the
surgeons who are capable of performing minimally invasive surgery.

Even though the majority of hysterectomies can be done with
one of the minimally invasive modalities, never before have there
been so many excellent alternative treatments for many benign
gynecologic conditions and the number of hysterectomies is going
down in the Unites States.

Alternative treatments include myomectomy, hormonal therapy,
use of the progesterone containing intrauterine device, endometrial
ablation and uterine artery embolization.

A hysterectomy may still be the best option for some women,
especially for those who have failed the more conservative treat-
ment options.
