Laparoscopy for Fibroids
Understanding Fibroids
Fibroids, though non-cancerous, can grow significantly in size and lead to various health issues. They often cause symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding and pain. Large fibroids can exert pressure on the bladder and bowels, resulting in difficulty with urination and bowel movements. Additionally, fibroids may contribute to infertility, miscarriages, or preterm deliveries
Why Treatment Is Necessary?
Not all fibroids require treatment, but problematic, large, or growing fibroids need medical intervention. Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical approach that offers an effective solution for fibroid removal. This technique allows for the removal of even large and multiple fibroids with minimal discomfort and quicker recovery times.
Benefits Of Laparoscopic Surgery
Minimally Invasive
Smaller incisions lead to reduced scarring and faster healing
Precision
High-definition cameras and instruments ensure accurate removal.
Less Pain
Patients experience less postoperative pain compared to traditional surgery.
Quick Recovery
Shorter hospital stays and quicker return to daily activities.
Treatment Options
Depending on the patient’s age and desire to have children, laparoscopic surgery can involve the removal of just the fibroids or, in some cases, the uterus. Each treatment plan is tailored to the individual needs of the patient.
