A common complication after surgery for supravaginal amputation of the uterine body is prolapse or prolapse of the cervical stump, which necessitates a second operation. As the analysis of the case histories of repeatedly operated patients has shown, some imperfection of the generally accepted classical technique of supravaginal amputation of the uterine body leads to the prolapse of the cervical stump.
