Laparoscopy
Laparoscopy is the overview of the abdomen (laparo). It is a method that can have diagnostic or therapeutic nature since it indicates any pathology of the abdomen.
With the aid of laparoscopic surgery more than the 80% of the gynecological surgical problems are now treated even those not related to infertility. Possible pathologies that are treated by laparoscopic surgery are:
- Uterine fibroids
- Adhesions
- Ovarian cysts of various etiologies
- Hydrosalpinx
- Endometriosis
- Ovarian drilling (ovarian diathermy) in PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) cases
- Ectopic pregnancy
- Tubal permeability certification (dye test)
- Congenital uterine malformations (Mullerian malformations) by means of hysteroscopy
Laparoscopy has replaced the traditional surgery tο a great extent and it is widely used as it offers many advantages.
Its main advantage is the absence of extensive surgical incision and its replacement by three small incisions of about 1 cm. This means minimal trauma and pain, minimal blood loss, absence of intra-abdominal adhesions as well as reduced postoperative hospitalization. In most cases recovery is immediate and return to work is possible within the next few days.
Furthermore, the absence of extensive incision has no negative aesthetic effect improving in this way the woman’s psychology and leading her to a faster recovery.
