Dr. Kavya Rashmi Rao specializes in
laparoscopic myomectomy in Mumbai at Shetty’s IVF, Women & Child Clinic, offering a minimally invasive approach to remove uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus.
Procedure Overview:
- Preoperative Assessment: Includes pelvic ultrasound, MRI, and blood tests to evaluate fibroid size and location.
- Anesthesia: General anesthesia is administered for patient comfort.
- Small Incisions: 3-4 tiny incisions are made in the abdomen.
- Insertion of Laparoscope: A camera-equipped instrument provides a magnified view of the uterus.
- Fibroid Removal: Specialized instruments excise fibroids while preserving healthy uterine tissue.
- Tissue Extraction: Fibroids are removed through small incisions using morcellation techniques.
Incisions made by Laparoscopic myomectomy are smaller and heal faster and patients typically return home within 24 hours, with a recovery period of 2-4 weeks.
