Ultrasound imaging reveals a cyst-like structure in the right uterine tube which you feel may be a tubal pregnancy. In order to confirm your diagnosis and to remove the tubal embryo, you can gain access to the patient's lower pelvic cavity by passing the culdoscope through:

Pass a culdoscope through vagina and the posterior fornix to gain entry into the rectouterine pouch. Can remove ectopic pregnancies this way.

Most common locations of ureteral injury in gyn cases

The most common sites of injury include: (1) the pelvic brim area during clamping of the infundibulopelvic (IP) ligament (2) the isthmic region during uterine artery ligation (3) the pelvic sidewall during suturing of the uterosacral ligament, and (4) the vaginal apex during clamping or suturing of the vaginal cuff.

Para-aortic lymph node dissection

Up to the level of the renals from the bifurcation of the aorta

During a hysterectomy, care must be taken in ligation of the uterine vessels because they cross the _________ superiorly

Ureter: "Water under the bridge". The uterine vessels cross over the ureter as the ureters pass through the base of the mesometrium.

Loss of this support leads to prolapse of the uterus

Uterosacral/cardinal ligament complex suspends the uterus and upper vagina in its normal orientation. It serves to maintain vaginal length and keep the vaginal axis nearly horizontal in a standing woman so that it can be supported by the levator plate

During abdominal hysterectomy, the ____________ is dissected to create the bladder flap, access the__________ space, and dissect the bladder off the lower uterine segment and anterior cervix

Vesicouterine fold, Vesicovaginal space
