Our hospital offers laparoscopic myomectomy for the removal of uterine fibroids. This procedure preserves the uterus and ensures a quicker recovery period. 

Laparoscopic myomectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to remove fibroids (benign tumors) from the uterus while preserving the uterus itself. This procedure is performed using laparoscopic techniques, which involve making small incisions in the abdomen and using a camera and specialized instruments to navigate and perform the surgery.

Here’s how the procedure generally works:

    1.    Anesthesia: The patient is under general anesthesia to ensure comfort during the surgery.
    2.    Small Incisions: Small incisions are made in the abdomen to insert the laparoscope and surgical instruments.
    3.    Visualization: The laparoscope transmits real-time images of the uterus and fibroids to a monitor, allowing the surgeon to assess their location, size, and number.
    4.    Fibroid Removal: The surgeon carefully removes the fibroids from the uterine wall, while leaving the uterus intact. This is particularly important for women who wish to retain their fertility.
    5.    Closure: The incisions are closed with sutures or surgical staples, and the patient can recover and return home relatively quickly.

Laparoscopic myomectomy is a preferred option for women who have symptomatic fibroids causing issues like heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, or pressure on nearby organs. The minimally invasive approach offers benefits such as shorter recovery times, reduced postoperative pain, and smaller scars compared to open surgery.
