There are several types of hysterectomy that may be considered based on the patient's condition:
Total Hysterectomy: Removal of the entire uterus, including the cervix. Subtotal or Partial Hysterectomy: Removal of the upper part of the uterus, leaving the cervix in place. Radical Hysterectomy: Removal of the uterus, cervix, and part of the vagina, often along with surrounding tissues and lymph nodes; usually done for cancer.
