Oooh you're near me lol

if you had your cervix removed then at the top of your vagina your now have a "cuff" this is a sealed scar where the top edges of your vagina were sewn together after the cervix was removed.

If you still have your cervix then just above it you have a cuff.
There is no link between your tubes and the bit of cervix that may remain, if you even have your tubes that is. Tubes are usually removed during a hyst because there is no longer any purpose for them.
