Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

Benefitting Women’s Health with Precision

According to research conducted in January 2023, the prevalence of hysterectomy among women >=45 years was 95% in Indian women. Vizag IVF Centre provides top-notch medical facilities, knowledgeable professionals, and compassionate care, ensuring the best outcomes for patients all around the world. The laparoscopic hysterectomy is a minimally invasive operation for removing the uterus.

A Run-Through Of the Laparoscopic Hysterectomy Procedure

A minimally invasive surgical process removes the uterus called a laparoscopic hysterectomy, which leaves fewer scars and requires just minor incisions.
 

Given below is a quick run-through of the procedure of Laparoscopic Hysterectomy:

 

Pre-operative Evaluation

  • Your healthcare practitioner will perform a complete evaluation prior to the treatment, which may include a review of your medical history, a physical exam, and maybe diagnostic testing like imaging or blood work.
  • Your healthcare team will also give you a chance to talk about any worries or inquiries you may have.

Anaesthesia

 

  • The anesthesiologist and surgeon will decide if anaesthesia is necessary to ensure a comfortable and pain-free procedure.

Port Placement

  • Small abdominal incisions (usually measuring 0.5 to 1 cm) will be made once you are sedated.
  • These incisions will be used to provide access locations for the laparoscopic devices known as trocars (hollow tubes).

Carbon Dioxide Insufflation

  • During the treatment, your abdomen will be slowly filled with carbon dioxide gas to make room and enhance visibility.
  • The abdominal wall will momentarily be lifted away from the organs in this way.

Laparoscope Insertion

  • One of the ports will be used to introduce the laparoscope, a small, illuminated tube with a camera.
  • On a monitor, the camera will display a magnified image of the surgical site, enabling the surgeon to navigate and carry out the treatment.

Uterine Detachment

  • The surgeon will carefully separate the uterus from surrounding components, such as the ligaments and blood vessels, using specialised tools put through the other openings.
  • The uterus and cervix will be separated, and if necessary, the ovaries and fallopian tubes may also be removed.

Removal and Closure

  • The uterus or other targeted structures will be delicately removed through one of the incisions or a little expanded incision after being carefully detached.
  • Sutures, staples, or adhesion strips will be used to close the remaining incisions.

Post-operative Care

  • You will be transported to the recovery area and given instructions on post-operative care, such as wound care, activity limitations, and follow-up appointments. 
  • Doctors may prescribe painkillers, antibiotics, and other supportive treatments to promote healing.
 

Healthcare providers will guide patients through the laparoscopic hysterectomy procedure and provide personalised care throughout recovery.

Perks of Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

The perks of Laparoscopic Hysterectomy are as follows:

  • Minimally Invasive: Small incisions are used during laparoscopic hysterectomy, which causes less tissue damage, less blood loss, and a quicker recovery than open surgery.
  • Reduced Pain: Laparoscopic hysterectomy frequently results in reduced post-operative pain and suffering because of the smaller incisions and little tissue damage.
  • Faster Return to Normal Activities: Compared to open surgery, patients who have a laparoscopic hysterectomy typically report a shorter hospital stay and a quicker return to normal activities.
  • Smaller Scars: The laparoscopic hysterectomy’s small incisions produce smaller scars, which are frequently less noticeable and more aesthetically pleasing.
  • Lower Risk of Problems: When compared to conventional open surgery, laparoscopic hysterectomy carries a lower risk of infection, wound problems, and post-operative adhesions.
  • Improved Visualisation: During the process, the laparoscopic camera’s magnified, high-definition images of the surgical site enable improved visualisation and precision.
  • Maintaining Hormonal Function: In some circumstances, laparoscopic hysterectomy enables the preservation of the ovaries, potentially preserving hormonal function and preventing the need for hormone replacement medication.
  • Minimal Blood Loss: The laparoscopic hysterectomy operation uses precise procedures that assist in minimising blood loss and lessen the need for blood transfusions.
