This video titled "Impact of Laparoscopic Myomectomy on Pregnancy Outcomes – Insights from WALS 2025" presents the latest scientific discussions and clinical data revealed during the World Association of Laparoscopic Surgeons (WALS) 2025 conference. The session brought together leading experts in gynecologic surgery who shared robust evidence that laparoscopic myomectomy significantly improves pregnancy outcomes in women with symptomatic or fertility-impairing uterine fibroids.
Why Laparoscopic Myomectomy Matters for Fertility
Uterine fibroids, particularly submucosal and intramural myomas, are known to distort the endometrial cavity, interfere with implantation, and increase the risk of miscarriage and infertility. Laparoscopic myomectomy offers a minimally invasive approach to remove these fibroids while preserving uterine integrity. WALS 2025 highlighted how this technique, when performed with precise dissection and multilayer uterine closure, can restore normal anatomy and dramatically enhance the chances of natural conception or successful assisted reproductive outcomes.
Key Findings Presented at WALS 2025 (Discussed in the Video)
Improved Implantation and Live Birth Rates
Speakers presented data showing that women undergoing laparoscopic myomectomy had higher implantation rates and increased live birth rates, especially when fibroids were impinging on the endometrial lining.
Reduced Pregnancy Complications
The technique was associated with lower miscarriage rates, improved placental implantation, and fewer preterm deliveries compared to women with untreated fibroids.
Faster Recovery and Quicker Time to Conception
Minimally invasive surgery results in less postoperative adhesion formation, shorter hospital stays, and a quicker return to fertility planning. Most women resumed conception attempts within 3 to 6 months post-surgery.
Surgical Safety and Uterine Integrity
Presenters emphasized the importance of meticulous suturing of the myometrium to maintain uterine strength, especially for women planning vaginal delivery or future pregnancies.
Clinical Applications and Case Studies
The video also features insights from live case discussions and real-world outcomes shared by surgeons from India, the UAE, Europe, and the USA. Success stories included women who conceived naturally within months of surgery after struggling with infertility for years due to undiagnosed or untreated fibroids.
Conclusion
The discussion at WALS 2025 confirms that laparoscopic myomectomy is not only effective in alleviating fibroid-related symptoms but also plays a pivotal role in improving pregnancy outcomes. With minimal access techniques offering superior visualization, reduced trauma, and faster recovery, this approach stands out as a fertility-preserving, uterus-sparing solution for women in their reproductive years.
