Dear all,

The ASGO Journal Club presents an insightful session titled "Improved bladder function in radical hysterectomy without worsening oncologic outcome: resection of the posterior layer of the vesicouterine ligament with the procedure limited to the vesical veins." 

The objective of the classic Okabayashi nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy involves complete resection of the posterior leaf of the vesicouterine ligament, whereas in the simplified nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy, only the vesical veins and some connective tissue of the posterior layer of the vesicouterine ligament are resected. This study aimed to compare bladder function and cervical carcinoma relapse-free survival between these two techniques.
