Laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) have been frequently used because of low complication rates and short duration of hospital stay. Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), a disadvantage of laparoscopic surgery, is caused by the Trendelenburg position (TP) and CO2 pneumoperitoneum (PP). This study aimed to evaluate TP and PP associated changes in ICP by ONSD measurements during LH. The intra‐and inter‐observer consistency and reliability of ONSD measurements were also investigated.
