Laparoscopic Myomectomy – Advanced Fibroid Removal with Fertility Preservation
At Radha Hospital & Fertility Center, we provide advanced laparoscopic myomectomy, a minimally invasive surgery designed to remove uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. This procedure is highly recommended for women who wish to maintain fertility, relieve symptoms, and improve quality of life without undergoing a hysterectomy.
What is Laparoscopic Myomectomy?
Laparoscopic myomectomy is a keyhole surgery performed through tiny abdominal incisions using a laparoscope (camera) and specialized instruments. The procedure:
Removes fibroids while keeping the uterus intact
Minimizes pain, scarring, and hospital stay
Supports women who want to preserve fertility and avoid hysterectomy
What are Uterine Fibroids?
Fibroids (also called myomas or leiomyomas) are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus. They vary in size and can cause:
Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
Severe pelvic pain or pressure
Frequent urination or constipation
Difficulty conceiving or recurrent pregnancy loss
Not all fibroids require surgery, but when they cause significant symptoms or impact fertility, myomectomy becomes the best treatment option.
Who is a Candidate for Laparoscopic Myomectomy?
This surgery is suitable for women who:
Have fibroids causing pain, bleeding, or infertility
Wish to conceive in the future
Have fibroids that are accessible laparoscopically (usually up to 8–10 cm in size)
Do not want a hysterectomy
How the Procedure is Performed
Anesthesia: The patient is given general anesthesia.
Small Incisions: Tiny cuts are made in the abdomen.
Laparoscope Insertion: A camera provides a clear view of the uterus.
Fibroid Removal: The surgeon carefully cuts and removes fibroids.
Uterine Repair: The uterus is stitched to restore shape and strength.
Closure: Small incisions are closed with minimal sutures.
