Abstract :Abstract Background/Aim: This bibliometric study aimed to analyze published articles in the field of laparoscopic hysterectomy in order to identify their characteristics and trends. Method: The analysis covered all studies that had been published on laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) that were published between 1992 and December 31, 2021. Bibliometric data was gathered from the Web of Science database, and VOSviewer software was used to construct bibliometric diagrams. Result: A total of 993 articles according to the search criteria. 12.79% of the articles were published as open access and 96.375% were in English. Since 2010, 57% of articles have been published. These articles had an h-index of 70, a total of 23538 citations, and an average of 23.7 citations per article. Although the number of publications about LH changes from year to year, it peaked in 2015 (the number of publications was 59) and it had the highest citation numbers (n = 1800) in 2021. 3448 authors contributed to the publication of scholarly works on LH. Prof. Fabio Ghezzi from the University of Insubria (Italy) was the most published author on LH with 25 articles. Prof. Fabio Ghezzi’s articles on LH were cited 735 times (29.4 per article). The majority of the articles were published by affiliates in Italy and the United States. Conclusion: This study represents the first bibliometric analysis of laparoscopic hysterectomy. Laparoscopic hysterectomy research has advanced but slowed in recent years. Developing nations should consider increasing research funding to produce substantial research that can serve as the foundation for locally applicable, evidence-based laparoscopic hysterectomy interventions.Keywords : Bibliometrik, Atıf analizi, Laparoskopik Histerektomi, Doğum
