Brief Summary: Insulin resistance is a key reaction to surgery and trauma and reflects the degree of metabolic stress. With greater degree of insulin resistance the development of complications increase, in particular infectious complications. The aim of this study is to determine if robotic assisted total laparoscopic hysterectomy induces less insulin resistance compared to abdominal hysterectomy. Insulin resistance is measured by the hyperinsulinemic normoglycemic clamp method. In addition inflammatory factors and clinical recovery will be measured.
Detailed Description: This is a prospective randomized controlled single center study. Primary screening will take place in the gynecological ward of Orebro University hospital according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 20 patients will be enrolled. All participants are randomized between robotic assisted total laparoscopic hysterectomy and total abdominal hysterectomy.

The main purpose of this study are to determine if robotic assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy induces less insulin resistance compare to abdominal hysterectomy. Both patients with benign and malignant disease are included. In addition inflammatory factors such as IL-6 and CRP are measured and clinical recovery is measured.

Each patient will be studied twice using the hyperinsulinemic normoglycemic clamp, a method that now is the gold standard for determining insulin sensitivity. During the clamp insulin is infused intravenously to attain an elevation at levels seen after an abnormal meal. At the same time glucose is infused to balance the effect of insulin and to maintain normal blood glucose level. The amount of the glucose infusion needed is the level of insulin sensitivity. The clamp procedure is performed before surgery as a control measure and the morning after surgery to yield the relative change in insulin sensitivity caused by the operation (postoperative insulin resistance). Before the onset of the infusion, and after 60 minutes of steady state during insulin stimulation, blood is collected for the analysis of immune function. This is also collected 3 hours after surgery.

A 6 minutes walk test is performed before surgery and the day after surgery, in order to determine a more clinical measure on recovery.

In addition demographic and clinical data are systematically collected during the hospital stay and 30 days after.
