Laparoscopic Myomectomy

Laparoscopic Myomectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to remove uterine fibroids (non-cancerous growths) while preserving the uterus. The procedure is performed using a laparoscope, a thin, lighted instrument equipped with a camera, which allows the surgeon to visualize the pelvic organs on a screen and precisely remove the fibroids through small incisions.

When and why do people go for Laparoscopic Myomectomy?

People opt for Laparoscopic Myomectomy for several reasons:

  • Symptomatic Fibroids: To relieve symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain or pressure, frequent urination, and reproductive issues caused by fibroids.
  • Fertility Preservation: Women who wish to maintain their fertility and have children in the future often choose myomectomy over hysterectomy, which involves removing the entire uterus.
  • Non-Responsive to Medication: When fibroid symptoms do not improve with medication or other non-surgical treatments.
  • Growth of Fibroids: If fibroids continue to grow and cause significant discomfort or complications.

What makes Laparoscopic Myomectomy different from other treatment options?

Laparoscopic Myomectomy offers several advantages over other treatment options:

  • Minimally Invasive: Involves small incisions, leading to less tissue damage and scarring compared to traditional open surgery.
  • Reduced Pain: Patients typically experience less postoperative pain and discomfort.
  • Shorter Hospital Stay: Often allows for a quicker discharge from the hospital, sometimes within 24 hours.
  • Faster Recovery: Leads to a quicker return to normal activities, often within a few weeks.
  • Lower Risk of Infection: Smaller incisions reduce the risk of infection and complications.
  • Preservation of Uterus: Allows women to retain their uterus, which is crucial for those who wish to conceive in the future.

How does life change after Laparoscopic Myomectomy?

Life after Laparoscopic Myomectomy can bring significant positive changes:

  • Symptom Relief: Many patients experience relief from symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure.
  • Improved Fertility: Women who undergo myomectomy often see improvements in fertility and have successful pregnancies.

Laparoscopic Myomectomy offers an effective, minimally invasive solution for managing uterine fibroids, enabling women to experience significant symptom relief and an enhanced quality of life with minimal downtime and discomfort.
