Robotic Myomectomy
Robotic Myomectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed using robotic technology to remove uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. It is commonly used to treat symptomatic fibroids, which are noncancerous growths in the uterus that can cause pelvic pain, heavy menstrual bleeding, and other symptoms.
When and why do people go for a Robotic Myomectomy?
People undergo robotic myomectomy when they have symptomatic uterine fibroids that require surgical removal while preserving the uterus. The surgery may be recommended to alleviate symptoms such as pelvic pain, pressure, or heavy menstrual bleeding, and to improve fertility for women who wish to become pregnant in the future. Robotic-assisted techniques offer several advantages, including smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery times compared to traditional open surgery.
What makes Robotic Myomectomy different from other treatment options?
Robotic myomectomy differs from other treatment options for uterine fibroids, such as hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) or traditional myomectomy (open surgery), in that it utilizes advanced robotic technology to perform the procedure with increased precision and dexterity. The robotic system provides the surgeon with a three-dimensional view of the surgical site and allows for greater flexibility and range of motion of instruments, facilitating complex maneuvers in confined spaces. This minimally invasive approach results in less trauma to surrounding tissues, reduced postoperative pain, faster recovery, and improved cosmetic outcomes compared to traditional open surgery.
How does life change after Robotic Myomectomy?
Life after robotic myomectomy can vary depending on the extent of the procedure, the individual's overall health, and the underlying condition being treated. Many people experience relief from symptoms such as pelvic pain, pressure, or heavy menstrual bleeding after surgery, as the procedure helps to remove uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. Recovery from robotic myomectomy is typically faster than with open surgery, and most patients are able to resume normal activities within a few weeks to months after the procedure. With proper postoperative care, including pelvic floor exercises and hormone therapy if necessary, most individuals can expect to enjoy improved quality of life and long-term outcomes after robotic myomectomy.
