Laparoscopic Radial Hysterectomy Lecture By Dr R K Mishra
For Gynecologist / Aug 23rd, 2020 6:49 am     A+ | a-


This video demonstrate Hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus. It may also involve removal of the cervix, ovaries, Fallopian tubes, and other surrounding structures. Usually performed by a gynecologist, a hysterectomy may be total or partial.

Laparoscopic radial hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus and cervix through small incisions in the abdomen. It is a minimally invasive technique that uses a laparoscope, a thin, flexible tube with a camera and light at the end, to view the internal organs.

During the procedure, the surgeon will make several small incisions in the abdomen and insert the laparoscope and other surgical instruments to access the uterus and cervix. The surgeon will then cut the uterus and cervix into small pieces and remove them through the incisions.


 

This procedure is called "radial" because the surgeon removes the uterus and cervix by cutting it into radial sections, rather than removing it in one piece. This technique is preferred in cases where the uterus is enlarged or where there is limited access to the uterus due to previous surgeries or scarring.

The advantages of laparoscopic radial hysterectomy include smaller incisions, reduced pain and scarring, shorter hospital stay, and faster recovery time compared to traditional open surgery. However, not all patients are candidates for this procedure and it is important to discuss your options with your doctor.

Laparoscopic radial hysterectomy has several advantages over traditional open surgery:

  1. Smaller incisions: The incisions made for laparoscopic surgery are much smaller than the incision required for open surgery. This leads to less scarring and less pain after the procedure.

  2. Reduced pain: Because the incisions are smaller, patients experience less pain after the surgery. In addition, laparoscopic surgery is less invasive than open surgery, which can also contribute to reduced pain.

  3. Shorter hospital stay: Patients who undergo laparoscopic surgery typically have a shorter hospital stay than those who undergo open surgery. This means that patients can return home sooner and resume their normal activities more quickly.

  4. Faster recovery time: Because laparoscopic surgery is less invasive than open surgery, patients typically have a faster recovery time. They can return to work and resume their normal activities sooner than those who undergo open surgery.

  5. Reduced risk of complications: Laparoscopic surgery is associated with a lower risk of complications, such as bleeding and infection, than open surgery.

  1. Better visualization: During laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon uses a laparoscope, a thin, flexible tube with a camera and light at the end, to view the internal organs. This provides the surgeon with a clear and magnified view of the surgical area, allowing for better visualization and precision.

  2. Reduced blood loss: Laparoscopic surgery is associated with less blood loss than open surgery, which can be especially beneficial for patients with anemia or bleeding disorders.

  3. Lower risk of adhesions: Adhesions are bands of scar tissue that can form after surgery and cause pain or other complications. Laparoscopic surgery is associated with a lower risk of adhesions compared to open surgery.

  4. Fewer complications during surgery: Laparoscopic surgery allows for better access to the surgical site, which can reduce the risk of injury to surrounding organs or tissues.

  5. Better cosmetic outcome: Because laparoscopic surgery involves smaller incisions, it can lead to a better cosmetic outcome, with less visible scarring than traditional open surgery.

It's important to note that not all patients are suitable candidates for laparoscopic radial hysterectomy. Factors such as the size and location of the uterus, the presence of scar tissue, and the patient's overall health must be taken into consideration when determining whether laparoscopic surgery is appropriate. Your doctor will be able to advise you on the best treatment option for your particular case.

Like any surgical procedure, laparoscopic radial hysterectomy carries some risks and potential complications. These may include:

  1. Bleeding: There is a risk of bleeding during and after the surgery. This is more common in patients who have bleeding disorders or who are taking blood-thinning medication.

  2. Infection: Any surgical procedure carries a risk of infection. Patients who have weakened immune systems or who have had previous infections are at a higher risk of developing an infection.

  3. Injury to surrounding organs: During surgery, there is a risk of accidentally injuring surrounding organs or tissues, such as the bladder, ureters, or blood vessels.

  4. Anesthesia-related complications: Patients who undergo general anesthesia are at risk of developing complications related to the anesthesia, such as respiratory problems or allergic reactions.

  5. Blood clots: There is a risk of blood clots forming after surgery, especially in patients who are at a higher risk of developing blood clots.

  6. Adhesions: Adhesions are bands of scar tissue that can form after surgery and cause pain or other complications. Laparoscopic surgery is associated with a lower risk of adhesions compared to open surgery, but it can still occur.

  7. Conversion to open surgery: In some cases, laparoscopic surgery may need to be converted to open surgery if there are complications or if the surgeon cannot safely complete the procedure using laparoscopic techniques.

  1. Urinary problems: Some patients may experience urinary problems after the surgery, such as difficulty urinating or incontinence.

  2. Bowel problems: Patients may experience bowel problems after the surgery, such as constipation or diarrhea.

  3. Nerve damage: Laparoscopic surgery can sometimes cause nerve damage, which can lead to numbness or tingling in the surgical area.

  4. Scar tissue formation: Like any surgery, laparoscopic radial hysterectomy can lead to the formation of scar tissue. This can cause pain and discomfort, and in some cases, can require additional surgery to remove the scar tissue.

  5. Recurrence of the condition: Laparoscopic radial hysterectomy is typically performed to treat conditions such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, or cancer. In some cases, the condition may recur after the surgery, requiring additional treatment.

It's important to remember that the risks and potential complications of laparoscopic radial hysterectomy are relatively rare, and most patients experience a successful and uncomplicated surgery. Your doctor will take steps to minimize the risks and ensure that you have a safe and successful surgery. If you have any concerns or questions about the procedure, be sure to discuss them with your doctor.

The video displays a Hysterectomy, removal of the uterus, and possibly other reproductive structures, performed by a gynecologist. Laparoscopic radial hysterectomy is minimally invasive, using small incisions and a laparoscope for surgery. Small incisions and a laparoscope are used to access and remove the uterus and cervix in pieces.
