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.
There are three types of hysterectomies: 1  Partial: The upper part of the uterus is removed and the cervix is left intact. 2  Total: The entire uterus and the cervix are removed. 3  Radical: The entire uterus, the tissue on both sides of the cervix and the upper part of the vagina are removed.
