    Review Reference 1:

    Yusuf F, Siedlecky S. Hysterectomy and endometrial ablation in New South Wales, 1981 to 1994-1995. Aust N Z J Obstet Gynaecol 1997 May;37(2):210-216.

    After your evaluation of this and other literature, and your understanding that the patient wants to retain her uterus for a possible donor egg IVF cycle you would recommend which procedure?
