ERAS protocol has been shown to improve patient comfort and reduce the length of hospital stay in various kinds of surgical procedures. This study aimed to investigate whether ERAS protocol has an impact on healthcare costs in patients undergoing a laparoscopic hysterectomy. Patients scheduled for laparoscopic hysterectomy will be allocated to one of the study groups: ERAS group patients will receive ERAS protocol during the perioperative period; Conventional care groups will undergo standard abdominal hysterectomy without the implementation of ERAS protocol. The groups will be compared with respect to the length of hospital stay, rehospitalizations, and healthcare costs.
