Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality, the resistance, one arrives at the usual mathematical equation that describes this relationship:
Total hysterectomyâThe entire uterus, including the cervix, is removed. Supracervical (also called subtotal or partial) hysterectomyâThe upper part of the uterus is removed, but the cervix is left in place. This type of hysterectomy can only be performed laparoscopically or abdominally.
A hysterectomy is a GYN surgery procedure, which simply refers to the removal of the uterus, including the cervix. The terms âpartial hysterectomyâ and âtotal hysterectomyâ are commonly used by non-medical people but are not technically accurate. Partial hysterectomy usually refers to removal of only the uterus.
