Life-Changing Innovative Laparoscopic Myomectomy

Why Is Myomectomy needed?

FIBROIDS & FERTILITY: The main purpose myomectomy needs to done is to save the uterus for pregnancy, or to get rid of fibroids that are preventing the patient from becoming pregnant.

Submucosal fibroids in the cavity should be detached since they may make conception of the pregnancy hard, and may also increase the risk of miscarriage.

  •     Intramural fibroids should be removed in those patients with difficulty conceiving.
  •     In general, subserosal fibroids have little effect on the ability to become pregnant.

SYMPTOMS: Heavy menstrual bleeding and clotting, pain, compression of fibroids against the bladder, bowel, blood vessels that can lead to pain, difficulty going to the bathroom, and/or complications with circulation.

 

A Patient underwent Laparoscopic Myomectomy at Singla Mediclinic. Myomectomy removes fibroids while leaving the uterus intact in order to preserve fertility.

Should Hysterectomy be performed

A Hysterectomy is an operation to remove a Woman’s Uterus. You might have it for reasons such as :

  • Uterine Fibroids that cause pain Bleeding or other problems
  • Endometriosis

  • Cancer of uterus, Cervix or Ovaries.

Hysterectomy for Noncancerous reasons is usually considered only after all other treatment approaches have been tried without success.
Depending on the reason for the Hysterectomy, A Surgeon may choose to remove all or only part of the Uterus.
The ovaries may also be removed.. A procedure called oophorectomy..or may be left in place. When the tubes are removed that procedure is called Salpingectomy.
Most women have no serious problems or complications from the operation. But it’s considered major surgery and it is not without risks.
After a Hysterectomy. if the ovaries were also removed, A woman will enter menopause. If the ovaries were not removed , a woman may enter menopause at an earlier age than she would have otherwise.

Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy proves to be a boon for the physically challenged lady

Our patient, Baljinder Kaur, who has been suffering from polio since childhood, leaving her severely physically disabled and an abnormally narrow pelvis, was suffering from heavy vaginal bleeding with clots and pain every month.

She was diagnosed to have large uterine fibroids. It was a distressing condition for her as she could not even lie down straight or move around on her own; leave aside take care of her painful heavy vaginal bleeding every month. She needed a hysterectomy.

Doing an abdominal hysterectomy would have led to a large abdominal incision with very difficult painful period of post operative care, besides chances of wound infection, incisional hernia development. She underwent Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy at IVY Hospital, with tiny ½ to 1 cm incisions, and minimal post operative pain.

The Advanced laparoscopic surgery was performed by Dr. Raman Singla, Head, Deptt. Of Minimal Access Surgery and Dr. Rimmy Singla, Consultant Gynaecologist, IVY Hospital.

To quote another similar example from our series, Mrs. Sharma was miserable for last few years – heavy periods, lots of cramping. She had large multiple fibroids (largest measuring 10 cm) in her uterus, causing distressing bleeding and serious discomfort. She had earlier undergone Caesarean section. She needed a hysterectomy, she was told.

She had earlier been advised that abdominal hysterectomy was the best option — “so that one could see everything clearly,” she told. That involves a big incision in the abdomen, about five to seven days in the hospital, and nearly two months of recovery.

“I didn’t like the idea of abdominal surgery,” she says. “I am a house wife with a nuclear family, and a kid at home. I knew I needed to be up and about to take care of my home. I didn’t have time for the six- to eight-week recovery.” She had not forgotten the post operative agony of her previous Caesarean Section.

That’s when she got a second opinion, which resulted in a Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy, by Dr. Raman Singla, at IVY Hospital. It left almost no scar, and she had minimal downtime.”One day later, I pretty much walked out of the hospital,” she says. “By the second day, I felt wonderful. I didn’t have the miserable pain.”

Laparoscopic Hysterectomies

Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy is a form of minimally invasive surgery that allows the surgeon to view the internal organs through a camera attached to a telescope through very tiny incisions. Laparoscopic surgery is used in Gallbladder, Hernia and Appendectomy surgeries, and has been adapted to surgeries in other fields also.

While upwards of 80% of all hysterectomies are abdominal surgeries, they could well be done as laparoscopic hysterectomies, doctors say.

The trend is indeed moving in that direction – and the patient’s recovery is the biggest reason. There’s a shorter hospital stay and recovery, compared to abdominal surgery, so return to normal activity is much quicker.

Hysterectomy Recovery: A Quick Comparison

It’s easy to see why women opt for laparoscopic hysterectomy. Why suffer with a big incision if you don’t have to? Why have a month or more downtime if it’s not necessary? Compare the three options available:

* The standard abdominal hysterectomy is major surgery with a big belly incision, and a slow, painful recovery. Approximate recovery time: Six to eight weeks.

* The laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy, or LAVH – Only women with a relatively small fibroid, small uterus, and no previous caesarean sections can have this. Approximate recovery time: Two weeks.

* The total laparoscopic hysterectomy, TLH – even in patients with large fibroids, previous Caesarean sections – involves only small “keyhole” incisions, often made in the navel or abdomen. Approximate recovery time: One to two weeks.

Earlier laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH), which debuted in the late 1990s, was the commonly performed procedure. But total laparoscopic hysterectomy is a much newer concept – with the first cases performed in 2005.

The Pros and Cons of Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

Nearly any woman is a good candidate for total laparoscopic hysterectomy – ones with larger uterus, whether she has had a caesarean section or not, patients with endometriosis, etc.

The incisions are smaller (1/2 to 1 cm) and much less uncomfortable than that of abdominal hysterectomy. Also, the hospital stay of 1-2 days and the ability to resume normal activity in about 2 weeks are substantially shorter than for abdominal hysterectomy.

Ensure Pregnancy through Egg-freezing

The role of the mother, giving birth to a child is considered a sense of completeness for many women in their life. In this regard, age plays a very important role in fertility and pregnancy. A woman’s fertility peaks in her early and mid-twenties, after which it starts declining.

 

Women are born with their unique life time supply of eggs, which is fixed and declines with age. When a woman reaches her late 30’s, the remaining eggs have less potential for fertilising and establishing a healthy pregnancy. The advanced egg age leads to increased risk of miscarriage and infertility. Beyond 35 years of age, a lot more eggs become genetically abnormal, leading to a failure of treatment, and hence there are high chances of abortion, congenital malformation.

A decline in fertility peaks at 20-25 years, it declines by 10% 25-30 years, by 30% at 30-35 and by 50% at 35-40 years.

 

The fecundity of women decreases gradually, but significantly from approximately 32 years and decreases more rapidly after 37 years, reflecting primarily as a decrease in egg quality.

 

An age increases, the risks of other disorders that may adversely affect fertility, such as leiomyomas, tubal disease, and endometriosis, also increases. Women with a history of prior ovarian surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, severe endometriosis, smoking, pelvic infection, or a strong family history of early menopause may be at an increased risk of having a premature decrease in the size of their follicular pool, and hence a decline in fertility.

Education and enhanced awareness regarding the effect of age on fertility is essential in counselling patients who desire pregnancy. if there is need to delay child bearing, you can go for embryo egg freezing through fertility preservation. This will ensure that when you decide to become pregnant, their healthy eggs can be fertilised clinically. Otherwise once age sets in, you will have to rely on egg donation. It is important to remember that the biological clock cannot wait, and you need to take a wise decision regarding pregnancy before it is too late, considering the factor of age the resultant physiological condition of your body.
