Endometriosis Surgery
Advanced Laparoscopic Treatment for Pain Relief & Fertility Preservation
Endometriosis surgery is performed to remove abnormal tissue growing outside the uterus, relieving pain and improving fertility. It is commonly done using minimally invasive laparoscopy, ensuring faster recovery and less scarring. Early surgical intervention can enhance quality of life and reduce complications, especially in severe cases of endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, affecting ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic organs. It can lead to severe pelvic pain, painful periods, and infertility.
When is Endometriosis Surgery Needed?
Surgery is recommended when:
- Chronic pelvic pain is severe or persistent
- Medications or hormonal therapy are ineffective
- There are ovarian cysts (endometriomas)
- Infertility is linked to endometriosis
- Disease affects organs like bowel or bladder
Laparoscopic Endometriosis Surgery (Keyhole Surgery)
Laparoscopy is the gold standard treatment for endometriosis. It is a minimally invasive procedure performed through small incisions using a high-definition camera.
Procedure Overview:
- Performed under general anesthesia
- Small incisions (0.5–1 cm) are made in the abdomen
- A laparoscope (camera) is inserted for clear visualization
- Endometriotic tissue, cysts, and adhesions are removed or destroyed
This technique allows both diagnosis and treatment in a single procedure.
Surgical Techniques Used
- Excision Surgery – Complete removal of endometriosis tissue (preferred for long-term results)
- Ablation – Destruction of lesions using heat or laser
- Adhesiolysis – Removal of scar tissue
- Cystectomy – Removal of ovarian cysts
- Advanced Surgery – For deep endometriosis involving bowel or bladder
Benefits of Laparoscopic Surgery
- Minimal pain and scarring
- Faster recovery and shorter hospital stay
- Reduced blood loss and infection risk
- Improved fertility outcomes
- High precision with better visualization
Recovery After Surgery
- Hospital stay: Usually 1–2 days
- Resume daily activities: Within 1 week
- Full recovery: 2–4 weeks
- Follow-up may include hormonal therapy to prevent recurrence
