Minimally invasive laparoscopic hysterectomy

Total laparoscopic hysterectomy or laparoscopic hysterectomy performed in a minimally invasive fashion through bandaid-size incisions.

 

Operative hysteroscopy

Removal of submucosal fibroids and endometrial polyps using the hysteroscope for treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding. No incisions required, rapid recovery.

 

Minimally invasive alternatives to hysterectomy

Endometrial ablation procedures to treat abnormal uterine bleeding; placement of progesterone IUD (Mirena)to treat heavy menstrual bleeding, hormonal treatments.

 

Hysteroscopic sterilization procedure

Permanent sterilization performed hysteroscopically (no incisions)by placing nickel-titanium coils in the fallopian tubes (ESSURE procedure). Outpatient procedure, painless recovery, requires confirmation of tubal occlusion 3 months post-operatively.

 

Endometrial ablation

Destruction of the uterine lining using heat to treat heavy, disruptive periods. Quick 2 minute outpatient procedure, no incisions, rapid recovery.

 

Advanced laparoscopy

Minimally invasive laparoscopic treatment of ovarian cysts, endometriosis, pelvic pain, or for permanent sterilization.

 

Robotic-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy

Total laparoscopic hysterectomy is performed in a minimally invasive fashion using robotic-assistance allowing shorter hospital stay, less pain & scarring, less blood loss, faster recovery.

 

Robotic-assisted myomectomy

Advanced, minimally invasive surgical approach to preserve the uterus. Performed laparoscopically with robotic assistance.

 

Labiaplasty

Labial reduction to treat elongated, asymmetrical, or enlarged labia minora.
