Laparoscopic Myomectomy
Laparoscopic myomectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure to remove uterine fibroids (myomas) while preserving the uterus. It is an ideal option for women who wish to retain their fertility or prefer to keep their uterus intact.
What are Uterine Fibroids?
Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths of the uterine muscle. They vary in size and number and can cause a range of symptoms depending on their location and size.
Symptoms of Fibroids
- Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
- Pelvic pain or pressure
- Frequent urination
- Bloating or enlarged abdomen
- Difficulty conceiving or recurrent miscarriages
- Back or leg pain
Why Choose Laparoscopic Myomectomy?
- Uterus is preserved — ideal for women wanting future pregnancies
- Smaller incisions and minimal scarring
- Reduced blood loss and post-operative pain
- Shorter hospital stay and faster recovery
- Lower risk of adhesions compared to open surgery
The Procedure
Under general anesthesia, a laparoscope and specialized instruments are inserted through small abdominal incisions. The fibroids are carefully removed and the uterine wall is repaired. The procedure typically takes 1–3 hours depending on the number and size of fibroids.
Recovery
Most patients are discharged within 1–2 days. Light activities can be resumed within 1–2 weeks, with full recovery in 3–4 weeks.
