Dear Eniola Fadojutimi The advantage of laparoscopic removal of fibroid is that patients can go home the same or next day and be back to work in 1-2 weeks. However it is important that the surgery be as complete as by laparotomy or any advantage is lost. World Laparoscopy Hospital has pioneered the technique of VERTICAL DEEP LAYERED REPAIR of the muscle by laparoscopic suturing. This creates a strong repair allowing normal VAGINAL delivery even after removing larger intramural fibroids. The use of an electric morcellator to remove the fibroid tissue in long strips has made the surgery speedier so that 18 week size fibroids can be treated in 2 hours.It does not matter whether the fibroids are removed by laser, harmonic scalpel, knife or electrosurgery. The skill of the surgeron is paramount to results. Using the laparoscopic approach the uterus is visualized and its fibroids located and removed. Morcellators are available to shred larger fibroids so that they can be removed through the small portholes of laparoscopy |

Pls can you explain to me what Morcellators means because am equally suffering from very large multiply fibroid and am considering laparoscopy. Dear Johnson O.R Morcellator is designed to minimize procedure times in laparoscopic gynaecology and urology, including removal and morcellation of myomata in small pices. |
