hysterectomy

Plz could someone tell me wot is the difference between a radical hysterectomy and a total hysterectomy xx

Hey...I think I am right in saying a total is ovaries, tubes, uterus and cervix. A radical is all of the above, with top of the vagina, pelvic lymph nodes and some pelvic muscles thrown in as well. H x

Thanks Helen :-)

You are a star!
