Frequently Asked Questions
What is laparoscopy?
A minimally invasive technique performed through small incisions. Recovery time is significantly shorter.
How long is recovery after minimally invasive surgery?
After most laparoscopic operations, patients are discharged the same or next day and return to daily life within 3-7 days. Compared with open surgery there is less pain, much smaller scarring and significantly less time off work.
Which operations can be performed minimally invasively?
Ovarian cysts, chocolate cysts, fibroids, ectopic pregnancy, tubal assessment, intrauterine polyps and septum can all be treated with laparoscopy or hysteroscopy.
Does minimally invasive surgery affect fertility?
Properly planned minimally invasive surgery aims to preserve fertility; healthy ovarian tissue and the uterus are carefully protected while removing fibroids or cysts. In patients planning pregnancy, the decision for surgery is made together with an assessment of ovarian reserve.
Is hysteroscopy painful, and does it require anesthesia?
Diagnostic hysteroscopy is performed with thin cameras, often without anesthesia or under light sedation, and takes a few minutes. When a polyp or fibroid is to be removed, brief general anesthesia or sedation is preferred; apart from mild cramping, significant pain is not expected afterwards and most patients are discharged the same day.
Is minimally invasive surgery suitable for every patient?
It is suitable for the great majority of patients; however, very large masses, extensive intra-abdominal adhesions or certain comorbidities may require open surgery. The decision is made together with the patient, weighing imaging findings, previous operations and overall health.
