Watch this educational video on Laparoscopic Myomectomy, demonstrating advanced minimally invasive surgical techniques for the removal of uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus.

This step-by-step surgical video highlights patient safety, precision dissection, bleeding control, and suturing techniques used during laparoscopic myomectomy procedures. It is highly useful for surgeons, gynecologists, and medical professionals who want to enhance their surgical skills and knowledge in minimal access gynecological surgery.

Laparoscopic Myomectomy is an advanced minimally invasive surgical procedure performed to remove uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus and fertility. At World Laparoscopy Hospital (WLH), this procedure is performed using modern laparoscopic technology, evidence-based surgical protocols, and structured clinical training, ensuring safe patient outcomes and high surgical precision.

WLH is a globally recognized academic institute providing patient care, research, and training in minimally invasive surgery, including laparoscopic, endoscopic, and robotic procedures.

Understanding Uterine Fibroids and Myomectomy

Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths arising from the muscular wall of the uterus. When fibroids cause heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, infertility, or pressure symptoms, surgical removal may be required.

Myomectomy is the surgical removal of fibroids while preserving the uterus. When performed using keyhole surgery with small incisions and a laparoscope, it is called laparoscopic myomectomy.

Laparoscopic Myomectomy at World Laparoscopy Hospital

At WLH, laparoscopic myomectomy is performed using high-definition imaging systems, advanced laparoscopic instruments, and structured surgical protocols. The institute combines:

• Advanced surgical infrastructure

• Expert faculty supervision

• Hands-on training with live surgical exposure

• Simulation-based laparoscopic skill development

Trainees and surgeons receive exposure to real surgical cases including myomectomy under expert guidance.

Indications for Laparoscopic Myomectomy

Laparoscopic myomectomy is usually recommended when fibroids cause:

• Heavy menstrual bleeding not controlled by medicines

• Severe menstrual pain

• Infertility or difficulty conceiving

• Pressure symptoms like frequent urination

• Rapidly growing fibroids

Surgical Procedure Overview

The procedure typically includes:

1. General anesthesia administration

2. Creation of small abdominal incisions (usually 3–4 ports)

3. Insertion of laparoscope and instruments

4. Identification and removal of fibroids

5. Uterine reconstruction using laparoscopic suturing

6. Specimen removal using safe extraction techniques

Small incision size (usually 5–12 mm) helps reduce trauma and improves recovery time.

Advantages of Laparoscopic Myomectomy

Compared to open surgery, laparoscopic myomectomy offers:

• Less postoperative pain

• Smaller scars (about 1 cm incisions)

• Early mobilization

• Short hospital stay

• Faster return to normal activity

• Less blood loss and fewer adhesions

Risks and Limitations

Although generally safe, potential risks include:

• Blood loss or need for transfusion

• Adhesion (scar tissue) formation

• Infection or organ injury (rare)

• Risk of uterine rupture in future pregnancy (rare but important)

• Small possibility of needing hysterectomy if bleeding is uncontrollable

Postoperative Recovery

Typical recovery includes:

• Oral fluids within hours after surgery

• Mobilization within 24 hours

• Hospital discharge often within 1–2 days

• Return to routine work in 2–6 weeks

Fertility Preservation and Pregnancy

One of the major benefits of myomectomy is preservation of fertility. Removal of fibroids may improve pregnancy chances if fibroids were interfering with implantation or uterine function. However, future delivery may require cesarean section in some cases.
