Laparoscopic Ablation Surgery

Laparoscopic Ablation Surgery, also known as laparoscopic myolysis, is a minimally invasive procedure used for the treatment of fibroids in the uterus. Fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus and can cause symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure.

During Laparoscopic Ablation Surgery, the patient is placed under general anaesthesia to ensure comfort throughout the procedure. Several small incisions, typically ranging from 0.5 to 1 centimetre in size, are made in the abdomen. Carbon dioxide gas is introduced into the abdominal cavity to create space and improve visualisation. The surgeon inserts a laparoscope, a thin, lighted instrument with a camera, through one of the incisions. The camera provides a magnified view of the pelvic organs on a monitor, allowing the surgeon to precisely locate and assess the fibroids. Additional specialised instruments, such as a laser or radiofrequency device, are inserted through the other incisions to perform the ablation. The surgeon targets the fibroids individually and applies energy (laser or radiofrequency) to destroy the fibroid tissue. This energy destroys the blood vessels that supply the fibroids, leading to their shrinkage and eventual reabsorption by the body. The surrounding healthy tissue is preserved, minimising the risk of damage to the uterus or other pelvic organs.

Laparoscopic Ablation Surgery For fibroids offers several advantages over traditional open surgery. The smaller incisions result in reduced postoperative pain, faster recovery, and minimal scarring. Patients typically experience shorter hospital stays and can return to their normal activities sooner. Additionally, the targeted nature of the procedure allows for specific treatment of individual fibroids, potentially preserving fertility in women who wish to conceive. Laparoscopic Ablation Surgery is most suitable for smaller fibroids that are located on the outer surface of the uterus. Larger or deeply embedded fibroids may not be effectively treated with this technique.
