Laparoscopy

About Laparoscopy

Laparoscopy, a minimally invasive procedure in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, is used to diagnose and treat women’s health issues. The gynecologist can examine the reproductive organs, including the uterus and ovaries, through a very small incision. This reduces pain, recovery times, and surgical risks when compared with traditional surgery. Laparoscopy can be used to diagnose and treat conditions that affect fertility, pelvic health, and gynecological well-being.

Laparoscopy: Key Uses in Gynecology

  • Infertility Assessment: Helps to identify the causes of infertility, such as blocked fallopian tubes, ovarian cysts or endometriosis.
  • Endometriosis treatment: Allows removal of endometrial tissues causing pain and fertility issues.
  • Ovarian cyst removal: Safe removal without damaging healthy ovarian tissues.
  • Fibroid surgery: Minimally invasive removal of uterine fibroid.
  • Pelvic Adhesion Releasing: Treats adhesions or scar tissue in the pelvic area that can cause pain and fertility problems.

Laparoscopy Benefits:

  • The procedure is minimally invasive and involves small incisions
  • Postoperative pain is reduced, and recovery is faster.
