A woman from puberty to menopause undergoes lot of complex changes in her body. Throughout this journey, she may be called upon to do some surgical procedures because of certain concerns like infertility, fibroids, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, abnormal bleeding, etc…
Laparoscopic or minimally invasive surgery or in the common term “keyhole surgery” is the standard of care in today’s era.
The common indications for laparoscopic surgery in gynecology are hysterectomy or uterus removal, management of endometriosis, removal of ovarian cyst, management of ectopic pregnancy, myomectomy or removal of fibroid, tubal recanalization. etc. Now a days gynecological cancer can be treated laparoscopically by an expert.
There are of lots of benefits for this minimally invasive surgery both for patients and surgeons.
We operate through small key holes 5mm and 10mm dimensions, through which a telescope and surgical instruments are introduced. The whole abdominal organs can be visualized clearly with a 360-degree panoramic view. We get a magnified view of the organs whereas in open surgery the vision is limited to that particular incision site only. The surgical procedure is the same as in open surgery but in laparoscopy, we use certain modern instruments for coagulation and cutting of tissues.
As the incisions are very small, patients will benefit from less pain, less blood loss, less infection, faster recovery, and cosmetically better scar compared to open surgery.
The patient can be discharged on the second day of the surgery or on the same day itself in a daycare procedure. Since it reduces the hospital stay, the patient can get back to her regular routine in minimum time.
With the minimally invasive procedure, we do lot of diagnostic and operative procedures. Almost all gynecological surgeries except cesarean section can be managed laparoscopically by an expert laparoscopic surgeon.
