Call for fewer hysterectomy ops
(BBC 11/09/2009)

An audit of 51,500 women in England found large variations in the type of surgery done for the condition. Overall, four in 10 women had a hysterectomy, but regional figures ranged from 25% to 54%. Experts said women may not be given enough information about the treatment options available.
