  • Description:
    This report presents statistics on women with hysterectomies from 1965 through 1984 based on data collected from the National Hospital Discharge Survey. Trends are examined by using frequency estimates, rates, and/or average length of stay for the following variables: age, region, race, diagnosis, surgical approach, and by whether or not a bilateral oophorectomy was performed. In addition, the proportion of women with intact uteri is presented for the years 1960 through 1984, and hysterectomies in military facilities are presented.
