“…as a technique to control blood loss and protect the ureter, even in cases with large uteri. The RPD required for this technique may also help prevent other visceral injuries by allowing full visualization and lateralization of the ureters . A randomized study of 400 patients showed shorter operative time (OT) and significantly less blood loss in patients who underwent uterine artery ligation at the origin versus the isthmo‐cervical region …”

“…[ 16 ] Best practices for these methods involve skilled surgeons and obstetricians who have detailed knowledge of pelvic artery anatomy that factors in vascular variations or distortions. [ 17 ] Uterine compression sutures were more likely to induce synechiae, persistent vaginal discharge, pyometra, endometriosis, and ischemic complications. [ 18 20 ] Furthermore, pelvic artery ligation may preclude subsequent embolization of the uterine artery when performed on an internal iliac artery, [ 21 ] and its success was only about 42% due to rich collateral vessels.…”

“…Often, pelvic pathologies such as fibroids, endometriosis, adhesions from previous pelvic surgeries, or ovarian remnants can distort the anatomic relations and create technical challenges during laparoscopic hysterectomies. Retroperitoneal dissection, in order to ligate the uterine artery at its vascular origin, can circumvent these obstacles, resulting in a safer procedure (6) . Uterine artery anatomy and flow play an important role during pregnancy.…”

“…Uterine artery location and origin is also important in pelvic surgery. High vascular ligation of the afore-mentioned artery is a necessary step during hysterectomy, myomectomy, and other and gynecologic oncology procedures (6) . However, uterine arteries demonstrate a plethora of anatomic variation mainly concerning their origin, raising a challenge for the surgeon.…”
