Laparoscopy
Rosh Maternal & Fetal Medicine is always at the forefront of technological advancements, using procedures such as laparoscopy in gynecology and obstetrics. Our advanced laparoscopic services allow you to access a wealth of benefits associated with minimally invasive and low-risk surgery and avoid the challenges of traditional surgery.
Read on to find out more about this technique and its unique benefits.
Understanding Laparoscopy
A laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used for the diagnosis or treatment of various issues in closed spaces within your body. It draws its name from the laparoscope – a tube-like instrument that features a video camera and light at the front. The laparoscope is long and thin, easy to insert through small incisions, and feeds high-resolution images to a video monitor.
When using this technique, Dr Roshan and his team only need to make small incisions to insert the instrument into the body. They get a real-time view of internal organs on a video monitor.
Using this information, they are able to make a diagnosis based on real-time images. If necessary, they can also use similar incisions to insert small laparoscopic tools and obtain samples or even perform surgery remotely, using the video footage to guide their moves.
Benefits of Laparoscopy
Using this approach offers numerous benefits:
- Alternative to Open Surgery
One of the foremost benefits is the fact that this minimally invasive method at times offers a viable alternative to open surgery. It eliminates the need for large openings and allows our team to perform surgery by inserting precision tools into the area of treatment.
- Faster Recovery
When used for surgery, it causes less tissue damage than traditional methods, resulting in less pain and faster recovery. A considerable number of our patients who undergo this procedure are able to go back home the same day or the day after.
- Accurate Diagnosis
In some instances, non-invasive diagnostic methods such as MRI scans and ultrasounds do not provide the insights or information needed for accurate diagnosis. Our team uses this approach to get the clarity they require to diagnose gynecologic issues, getting a close-up view of organs for precision and accuracy.
- Increased Safety
The use of small incisions eliminates the level of exposure to your internal organs, reducing the risk of infection. Overall, it is much safer than traditional methods and results in better outcomes.
- Less Scarring
This minimally invasive technique results in very little post-operative scarring. In addition to providing a better cosmetic outcome, this also reduces the risk of complications that could arise from the formation of scar tissue.
We Offer Advanced Laparoscopy Services
Our team of doctors at Rosh Maternal & Fetal Medicine uses advanced laparoscopy services to perform various medical diagnostic procedures and treatments.
- Diagnosis
Certain symptoms that may call for the use of laparoscopic diagnosis include chronic pelvic pain and inflammation, unexplained infertility and recurrent pregnancy loss. It often leads to the diagnosis of ovarian tumors and cysts, fibroids, endometriosis, various forms of cancer and pelvic inflammatory disease.
- Surgery
We perform laparoscopic surgeries in diverse situations that traditionally require open surgery. These include the removal of ectopic pregnancies, tubal ligation, endometriosis surgery, vaginal reconstruction, hysterectomy (uterus removal) and removal of cysts and uterine fibroids.
- Biopsy
We use this procedure to collect tissue samples from areas showing signs of anomalous cell growth. This comes in handy when we need samples from difficult-to-reach areas within the pelvis. In such cases, it might provide a higher level of precision than other procedures typically used for pelvic biopsies.
