Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

There is no serious risk in undergoing hysterectomy for those who have spina bifida. Hysterectomy is done in 3 ways.

1. Trans abdominal hysterectomy
2. Trans vaginal hysterectomy
3. Robotic hysterectomy

All the above methods are being done regularly in hospital throughout the world. Your anesthetist should be made aware of your spina bifida so that they can plan your surgery accordingly.

Hope this helps
