Abstract
At a teaching institution where surgeries are performed by residents and fellows, colpotomy is the lengthiest step of TLH and is influenced by uterine weight. This finding may reflect the training levels of the surgeons performing these cases and the learning curve associated with a challenging surgical skill. Further research should focus on simulation models and/or tools for colpotomy that may result in greater efficiency in the operating room.
