Gynaecological Endoscopy (Laparoscopy & Hysteroscopy)

A number of gynaecological disorders can benefit from gynaecological endoscopy as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. However, these operations do carry some risks and potential consequences, just like any other medical procedure, so patients should talk to their doctor about these before having the procedure.

Laparoscopy and hysteroscopy are two minimally invasive surgical techniques used to identify and treat gynaecological disorders.

Laparoscopy

This surgery that involves inserting a small abdominal incision and a thin, illuminated tube called a laparoscope to view the pelvic organs. A camera built into the laparoscope enables the surgeon to see the organs on a television monitor. Endometriosis, ovarian cysts, and fibroids are just a few of the problems that can be identified and treated using this treatment. Small surgical instruments can occasionally be placed through the laparoscope to carry out operations, such as the removal of cysts or scar tissue.

Hysteroscopy

Here, a narrow, illuminated tube called a hysteroscope is inserted through the cervix and vagina in order to view the uterus' interior. Additionally, the hysteroscope has a camera that the surgeon can use to see the uterus on a video monitor. Uterine fibroids, polyps, and adhesions are just a few of the diseases that can be identified and treated using this treatment. Additionally, small devices can be put through the hysteroscope to carry out treatments like polyp or fibroids removal.

 

Both treatments are done while the patient is under general anaesthesia, and most people are able to leave the same day. They are regarded as minimally invasive procedures since they only call for tiny incisions, which can lower the risk of complications and shorten recovery time in comparison to open surgery.
