Minimal Invasive Surgery and Gynecological Problems

Posted On: April 28, 2022

If you have been facing issues with your uterus, ovaries, cervix, or vagina and your Gynaecologist suggested for a procedure to evaluate a gynecological problem further, then there is nothing to worry about as it’s very common among women. The advancement in technology has made these procedures simple and less invasive.

With advanced training and years of experience, our surgeons have made great progress in how gynecological issues are managed, making Shalby one of the best Gynec hospitals in India. At Shalby about 80% of the gynecological conditions are dealt with in OPD or by Minimal Invasive Short Stay surgeries.

These short-stay surgeries have enabled women to get discharged within 24- 48 hours (depending on the condition and doctors’ assessment report). You can easily return to your daily routine within 1 week after the surgery.

Some of the short-stay surgeries are as follows:

Ectopic Pregnancy:

Women’s reproductive anatomy consists of the Fallopian tube, which is responsible to carry an egg from the ovary to the uterus. This type of pregnancy often occurs when the fertilized egg starts growing in the tube itself rather than going to the main cavity of the uterus which is a natural place for an egg to get fertilized.

 

Before the advancement of technology, these issues were resolved through Laparotomy or open abdominal surgery. But now with early diagnosis and laparoscopy, the patient can be treated on a daycare basis. Few cases can also be managed through effective medication itself.

Molar Pregnancy:

Molar Pregnancy is also known as a Hydatidiform mole, is a rare kind of pregnancy complication.

Let’s understand this from a basic:

To support any healthy pregnancy a uterus develops an organ called the placenta along with the embryo, placenta provides oxygen and nutrients to the growing baby and helps to excrete wastes from the baby's blood. When the men’s sperm and women’s egg joins incorrectly while fertilization, noncancerous tumors or moles are formed as a bunch of grapes instead of forming a healthy Placenta. These moles interrupt the development of the embryo and the pregnancy ends.

 

At Shalby with the best gynecologist nearby in the city, we manage pregnancies with the utmost care from the binging which helps to diagnose this condition early and provide treatment for pregnancy complications. In cases like Molar pregnancy, the clearing of the uterus is needed which is done on a day-care basis.

Uterine Fibroids:

Uterine fibroids are abnormal noncancerous tumors like growth in or on a uterus. These tumors can become large and cause complications like – abdominal pain and irregular heavy periods. In some other cases, they can be asymptomatic too. They are often seen in a woman during their menopause around the age of 45-50. Earlier fibroids removal was done via surgery and needed a long hospital stay. Now with the best myomectomy surgeons, best hysterectomy surgeons, and advances in laparoscopic surgeries at Shalby it became a short-stay procedure which means a patient can expect to get discharged early.

Abortion

Abortion is done to terminate a pregnancy in order to prevent childbirth. The embryo and the placenta, are removed from the uterus using medicine or surgery. If the pregnancy is of lesser than 7weeks, you can typically manage it with tablets on an outpatient basis. However, the Gynaecologist at Shalby strongly suggests not to take any medicine without a prescription, as complications can occur. Even if surgical evacuation is needed, you can return home the same or another day.

Irregular Periods or Menstrual Disorder

Women should not worry as menstrual problems are common and women of all ages face them. With each menstrual cycle, the uterine lining prepares itself to support a fetus (future pregnancy). If fertilization doesn’t occur, the uterine lining starts to shed out of the body in form of blood and tissues as a monthly cycle called menstruation. Due to any menstrual disorder like – PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome), Amenorrhea, Dysmenorrhea, Menorrhagia irregularity in periods can occur. We at Shalby provide the advanced and best treatment of menstrual problems. Not everyone with period problems needs surgery, as they can be treated by hormonal manipulation, even if the surgery is needed they are performed as OPD or short stay procedures.
