| Summary: | Complications from radical hysterectomy in low-income countries (LICs) are largely unreported in the medical literature.

These cases demonstrate the diversity and complexity of reconstruction techniques required and emphasize the need for careful tracking of surgical outcomes of radical hysterectomy. |
