Laparoscopic Surgery

Have you been told that you need traditional open surgery (ie surgery through a large incision on the abdomen) for your excessive menstrual bleeding, fibroids, ovarian cysts or endometriosis?

The consequences of traditional open surgery are:

• ugly scar
• more pain and discomfort after surgery
• longer hospital stay
• longer recovery

Now, instead of open surgery, you can opt for Laparoscopic Surgery.

What is laparoscopic surgery?

Laparoscopic surgery, also known as minimally invasive surgery or key-hole surgery, refers to surgery done through small (less than 1cm) cuts on your abdomen.

What are the benefits of laparoscopic surgery?

The major advantages of doing surgery through small cuts on your abdomen are:

• less pain after surgery
• less scarring and better cosmetic effects
• less hospitalization stay
• faster recovery

This means you are able to:

• get back to work earlier
• return to your active lifestyle faster
• spend more quality time with your loved ones sooner!

What kind of gynaecological procedures or conditions can be done using laparoscopic surgery?

Laparoscopic surgery can be done for removing

• fibroids
• ovarian cysts
• endometriosis

Minimally invasive surgery can also be used for

• tubal patency assessment (for infertility)
• tubal ligation (female sterilization)
• womb removal (hysterectomy)

What types of laparoscopic surgery can we perform for you?

Here are some of the procedures that we perform:

• Diagnostic laparoscopy
• Laparoscopic removal of endometriosis
• Laparoscopic removal of ovarian cysts, ovaries, or fallopian tubes
• Laparoscopic Myomectomy (removal of fibroids)
• Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (removal of womb)

Why choose us?

We evaluate you individually to determine the medical and surgical treatment options that best suit your needs. We are conservative in our approach to benign (non-cancerous) gynecologic conditions, and only consider surgical options when necessary and appropriate.

If surgery is found to be an appropriate option, we can offer a minimally invasive approach to most patients, often when they are told by other physicians that a laparoscopic approach is not possible.

We have years of experience performing many common gynecologic surgeries through the laparoscope. We are confident that as much as 80% of surgeries done for benign gynecologic disease can be performed with laparoscopic (minimally invasive) techniques.
