A total hysterectomy is the removal of the uterus and cervix only. A pan hysterectomy is a total hysterectomy wih the removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries (salpingo-oopherectomy) plus removal of lymph nodes. Its is usually done when cancer has spread beyond the tubes and ovaries to try and eradicate the cancer.
