Minimally invasive procedures used to diagnose and treat uterine, ovarian, and pelvic fertility problems.
Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgery typically performed on the abdomen or pelvis with the assistance of a thin telescope attached to a small video camera which provides visuals for areas outside of the uterus such as the fallopian tube, ovaries and the general pelvic region. Laparoscopic surgeries have very small incisions which lead to faster recovery times and less scarring. This type of surgery is used to both diagnose conditions and to perform infertility treatments.
A common occurrence, are non-cancerous tumours in the muscle cells of the uterus. Most fibroids are very small and don’t have any symptoms, but they can cause infertility by interfering with the implantation of the embryo and cause miscarriages due to their increase of size during early pregnancy. Fibroids in the uterus can also make it harder for an embryo to develop. A laparoscopic myomectomy is usually performed to remove the fibroids.
Hysteroscopic procedure involves the use of a small video camera to examine the uterus and uterine lining. The telescope goes through the cervix and into the uterus in order to view the uterine cavity. Hysteroscopic surgery is minimally invasive, using small incisions which provides less scarring, fewer complications and faster recovery and patient can be discharged on the same day of procedure
Some common hysteroscopic surgeries are:
Mon-Sat: 10:00 To 07:00 – 18.00pm
Saturday-Closed
