The well-informed, modern woman rightly values her physical integrity and wants minimally invasive surgical methods with organ preservation, should she require surgery.
Most gynaecological operations can be performed with modern endoscopic methods, or possibly in combination with surgical access through the vagina.
In the near future, a large abdominal incision will only be indicated for advanced malignant conditions or for extremely large tumors.
Our hospital for minimally invasive surgery , Klinik fuer MIC, has intensely embraced this change in trend from maximally invasive gynaecological surgery requiring large abdominal incisions to minimally invasive surgery via laparoscopy.
The following gynaecological procedures are performed:
Laparoscopy in cases of
- Changes in the ovaries and fallopian tubes
- Adhesions following surgery
- Uterine fibroids
- Endometriosis
- Infertility
- Infection
- Prolapse symptoms
- Urinary incontinence
- Endometrial carcinoma
- Cervical carcinoma
In cases of malignant conditions laparoscopy is combined with a transvaginal surgical approach in order to avoid a large abdominal incision in early stages of the disease.
Laparoscopy of the uterus (hysteroscopy) in cases of
- Menstrual irregularities
- Polyps
- Fibroids
- Infertility
Depending on the type of procedure the hospital stay lies generally between 2-7 days.
