If total then it is where the uterus and cervix of female is removed by incision through the stomach so that surgeon can access the abdominal cavity. If just a hysterectomy then it is only the uterus removed.

Cysts are usually found on the ovaries whereas a total hysterectomy whether abdominal or laproscopic removes the uterus and cervix. If the cysts are cancerous then their removal would be one option either by an oopherectomy (removal of the ovary) or a cystectomy removal of the cysts.
