Objective: reporting 2 cases of laparoscopic trachelectomy. Setting: the Gynaecological Endoscopy Unit at the Clínica del Prado in Medellín, Colombia. Design: this is a case report concerning two patients having symptomatic cervical stump following subtotal hysterectomy and its management by laparoscopy. Outcomes: the patients demographic data, pre-operation diagnosis, the surgical technique used for removing the cervix and the postoperative results are described. Conclusions: the available data revealed that a laparoscopic approach is a safe alternative for trachelectomy in benign conditions. This is the first report of laparoscopic trachelectomy published in Colombian literature.
