Introduction.Surgical laparoscopy has been widely adopted in gynecological practice. The first laparoscopic operation was carried out in our center in 1991. Lately different types of laparoscopic hysterectomy have been applied in surgical gynecology. In our clinic we widely use laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy, which was first performed here in 1996.

Background. Laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy is one of the most frequently performed gynecologic operations, and numerous authors have demonstrated its safety and feasibility.Case presentation. We practiced in some selected cases simultaneous laparoscopically assisted vaginal total hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy using 5 trocars without uterine manipulator. Previous examinations included abdominal ultrasound, cervix biopsy and CT of abdomen and pelvis.Our aim was to evaluate the surgical technique of our initial experiences for combined laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy and laparoscopic colecystectomy.Conclusions. Laparoscopic hysterectomy had a number of advantages over the conventional technique given the underlying associated diseases, postoperative pain, rapid recovery and aesthetic benefits.
