Common Gynecological and Reproductive Surgeries:
- Hysterectomy: Hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus and may involve removal of the cervix as well. It is a common procedure for conditions such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, or certain cancers.
- Tubal Ligation (Tubal Sterilization): Tubal ligation is a permanent method of contraception involving the blocking or sealing of the fallopian tubes. This prevents the eggs from reaching the uterus and is commonly known as “getting your tubes tied.
- Dilation and Curettage (D&C): D&C is a surgical procedure that involves dilating the cervix and scraping the uterine lining. It is often performed to diagnose and treat conditions such as abnormal bleeding or incomplete miscarriages.
- Myomectomy: Myomectomy is the surgical removal of uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. This procedure is considered for women with symptomatic fibroids who wish to retain fertility.
- Endometrial Ablation: Endometrial ablation is a procedure to destroy or remove the lining of the uterus. It is often performed to treat heavy menstrual bleeding and is not recommended for women who desire future pregnancy.
- Cervical Cerclage: Cervical cerclage is a procedure to sew a stitch around the cervix to prevent premature birth. It is commonly performed in women with a history of cervical incompetence or multiple miscarriages.
- Tubal Reversal: Tubal reversal, or tubal reanastomosis, is a surgical procedure to reconnect the fallopian tubes after a previous tubal ligation. This is done for women who have changed their mind about family planning.
- Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy: Laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy involves the removal of ovarian cysts using minimally invasive techniques. This is often done to treat cysts that are causing pain or affecting fertility.
- Gynecologic Oncology Surgery: Gynecologic oncology surgery includes procedures to treat cancers of the reproductive organs, such as ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, and cervical cancer. Surgeries may involve removing tumors, lymph nodes, or affected organs.
