What are minimally invasive surgeries?

Alliance Women's Health and Wellness, PC, treats several gynecologic conditions with minimally invasive surgeries. 

Minimally invasive procedures involve one or a few small incisions rather than a single large incision of a traditional open surgery. The advantages include:

  • Less pain 
  • Less blood loss 
  • Less risk of infection 
  • Faster recovery time 
  • Minimal scarring 

Your gynecological surgeon utilizes the latest technologies and always strives to find the least invasive approach to your surgery.

 

What can minimally invasive surgeries treat?

Minimally invasive surgical techniques can treat various gynecologic conditions, such as:

  • Endometriosis
  • Fibroids
  • Ovarian cysts 
  • Abnormal uterine bleeding (including heavy periods)
  • Irregular menstrual periods 
  • Chronic pelvic pain
  • Pelvic adhesions
  • Pelvic organ prolapse
  • Cervical disorders
  • Urinary incontinence

Before recommending surgery, your provider thoroughly examines your symptoms, condition, goals, and reproductive plans. 

They inform you of the benefits and risks of minimally invasive surgery and empower you to make a fully informed decision. 

 

What minimally invasive surgeries might I get? 

Alliance Women's Health and Wellness, PC, offers several state-of-the-art minimally invasive surgeries. They include the following.

Robotic hysterectomy 

During a robotic hysterectomy, your provider removes your uterus (partial hysterectomy) or your uterus and cervix (total hysterectomy) with the assistance of robotic arms. They use instruments passed through small abdominal incisions. The magnified 3D view allows for excellent precision, flexibility, and control.

Robotic myomectomy

A robotic myomectomy can remove fibroids that are within your uterine wall or that project to the outside of your uterus. Your provider may recommend this if you have small fibroids or a limited number of them, as the procedure offers a targeted approach that makes them easier to extract. 

Robotic endometriosis excision 

Your provider may recommend robotic surgery for endometriosis if you have several lesions or adhesions or if they’re in challenging locations. They use robotic arms to control surgical tools with a high level of precision. 

Laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy

This procedure can remove ovarian cysts. Your provider may recommend a cystectomy if you have an ovarian cyst that grows in size, doesn’t go away, or causes pain.

During the procedure, your provider inserts a tiny camera with a light on the top (laparoscope) through a small incision in your abdomen. They can then view your reproductive and pelvic organs. Through two other small incisions, they insert surgical tools to remove an ovarian cyst.
