How long am I under anesthesia?

Hi Sisters! - Just curious to see if anyone out there knows how long you are "under" for a LAVH? I know it will depend on the individuals situation, but I just want to get an idea of how long the surgery usually lasts.? Thanks ladies- you guys are wonderful !

I had a TLH, I was under anesthesia for about 2 hours. I did not have a BSO.

Hi jpenny,

I didn't have a LAVH, but I found this information on obgyn.net in an article comparing LAVH and TAH hysts:

	Quote:
The average surgery time for LA VH was 144 minutes and for TAH 98 minutes, a significant difference (p <0.005).

Here's the complete article.
