Designing and prototyping a new uterine manipulator with two plane motion mechanism and LED marker illumination system

Hysterectomy, that is removal of uterus, is one of the most common major operations in gynecologic surgeries. Laparoscopy technique is preferred in hysterectomy because of its advantages such as lower intra-operative blood loss, decreased surrounding tissue/organ damage, less operation time, lower post-operative infection and frequency of fever, shorter duration of hospitalization and post-operative returning time to normal activity.
