Laparoscopic Myomectomy Lateral Wall Fibroid Uterus

This Video demonstrates Laparoscopic Myomectomy Lateral Wall Fibroid Uterus performed by Dr. R.K. Mishra at World Laparoscopy Hospital. Myomectomy is a surgical procedure to remove uterine fibroids — also called leiomyomas. These common noncancerous growths appear in the uterus. Uterine fibroids usually develop during childbearing years, but they can occur at any age.
The surgeon's goal during myomectomy is to take out symptom-causing fibroids and reconstruct the uterus. Unlike a hysterectomy, which removes your entire uterus, a myomectomy removes only the fibroids and leaves your uterus.
Women who undergo myomectomy report improvement in fibroid symptoms, including decreased heavy menstrual bleeding and pelvic pressure.
Laparoscopy was performed with the patient in the lithotomy position by using video monitoring equipment. The telescope was inserted subumbilically and one 6 mm port was placed suprapubically and medially. Two 5-mm ports were placed in the lower quadrants at the lateral edge of the rectus abdominis muscle.

This procedure is considered when the largest fibroid is less than 10cm in size and the total no of fibroids is less than 5. However, sometimes larger and more numerous fibroids can be removed by this route depending on individual circumstances. Generally, if estimated duration of surgery is expected to be less than three hours, a laparoscopic approach is used. Sometimes, it can also be used as a two or three stage procedure. Certain hormonal injections or tablets can be used to reduce the size of the fibroids to make the procedure easier.

Uterine fibroids are a common type of noncancerous tumor that can grow in and on your uterus. Not all fibroids cause symptoms, but when they do, symptoms can include heavy menstrual bleeding, back pain, frequent urination and pain during sex. Small fibroids often don’t need treatment, but larger fibroids can be treated with medications or surgery.
