Process: Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

Laparoscopic hysterectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the uterus using minimally invasive techniques. At Aarvy Healthcare Super Speciality Hospital, laparoscopic hysterectomy is performed by highly skilled and experienced gynecologists who specialize in minimally invasive surgery.

The procedure begins with the administration of general anesthesia to ensure the patient’s comfort and safety throughout the surgery. Small incisions, typically less than an inch in length, are made in the abdomen to insert a laparoscope—a thin, lighted tube with a camera attached. The laparoscope allows the surgeon to visualize the surgical area on a monitor.

Using specialized surgical instruments inserted through additional small incisions, the surgeon detaches the uterus from its supporting structures, such as ligaments and blood vessels. The uterus is then carefully removed through one of the small incisions. In some cases, the cervix or ovaries may also be removed, depending on the patient’s medical condition and individual needs.

Benefits of Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

Minimally Invasive: Compared to traditional open surgery, laparoscopic hysterectomy offers numerous benefits. The use of small incisions reduces post-operative pain, minimizes scarring, and promotes faster recovery.

Reduced Blood Loss: The laparoscopic approach allows for better visualization and precision, resulting in minimal blood loss during the procedure.

Shorter Hospital Stay: With laparoscopic hysterectomy, most patients can expect a shorter hospital stay compared to open surgery. Typically, patients are discharged within 24 to 48 hours, allowing them to resume their daily activities sooner.

Quicker Recovery: The minimally invasive nature of laparoscopic hysterectomy contributes to a faster recovery time. Patients can experience less discomfort and return to their normal routine within a few weeks, compared to several weeks or even months with traditional surgery.

Lower Risk of Complications: The reduced trauma to the body during laparoscopic hysterectomy results in a lower risk of infection, hernia formation, and other complications associated with open surgery.
