Our team of highly skilled gynaecologists assesses each condition, offering a wide range of treatments and advising the best approach based on the patient’s symptoms and age. Common gynaecological treatments at Yashoda Hospitals include hysterectomy and various keyhole (laparoscopic) surgeries.

The Types of Treatments and Surgeries Offered at Yashoda Hospitals:

Preview: Laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy aims to remove the uterus and sometimes ovaries, allowing the surgeons to perform it vaginally through a laparoscopic technique while minimizing the procedure’s invasiveness. It is frequently employed to treat a variety of abdominal conditions, including fibroids, abnormal uterine bleeding, and uterine prolapse.

Surgical Steps

  • The surgeon makes a few small incisions in the abdomen to insert a laparoscope and several specialised tools.
  • The laparoscope provides a live, magnified view of the pelvic region on the screen, and using the laparoscopic instruments, the uterus, ligaments, and blood vessels are detached completely.
  • Once thoroughly separated, the uterus is removed through the vagina, followed by the closure of the abdominal or vaginal incisions with stitches.

Benefits:

  • Reduced pain
  • Quick recovery
  • Smaller incisions
  • Little to no blood loss
  • Reduced risk of complications
  • Better aesthetic results

Preview: Total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) aims to treat various gynecological conditions by removing the uterus in cases such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and abnormal uterine bleeding. Sometimes, its purpose is to prevent or manage cancer, control pain and bleeding, and consensually prevent future pregnancies.

Surgical Steps

  • The surgeon utilises a laparoscope that is inserted through a small incision made in the abdomen to visualise and remove the cervix and the uterus, and sometimes the fallopian tubes or ovaries may get involved, followed by the closure of the vaginal cuff.

Benefits:

  • Reduced scarring and blood loss
  • Cost-effective
  • Faster recovery
  • Lower risk of complications
  • Less post-operative pain and discomfort

  • Laparoscopic Myomectomy: This minimally invasive technique involves a smaller incision and a laparoscope to guide and remove the uterus.
  • Robot-assisted Myomectomy: This method is the same as laparoscopic myomectomy, where it utilises two robotic arms remotely controlled by a surgeon to precisely remove the fibroids.

Benefits:

  • Better fertility-preserving option
  • Alternative to hysterectomy
  • Reduced risk of complications
  • Imparts quick recovery

Read more about – Myomectomy

Preview: Trachelectomy treats early-stage cervical cancer while preserving the possibility of future pregnancy by keeping the uterus intact and removing the cervix and other surrounding organs, while objectively maintaining normal hormonal functions, since the preservation of the uterus allows for normal hormonal functioning.

Surgical Steps

  • In radical trachelectomy, depending on the stage of the cancer, a pelvic lymph node dissection is performed to assess the cancer and remove the affected lymph nodes.

Benefits:

  • Better alternative to hysterectomy
  • Preserve fertility

  • They may take a biopsy or perform surgeries based on the findings, like tumors or damaged organs, or to drain the abscess.
  • The recovery may take up to several weeks, depending on the number of hospital stays and the extent of the procedure.

Benefits:

  • Performs quickly in emergency cases
  • Effective for complex cases

  • The patient may receive instruction for pain management and wound care with follow-up appointments and is required to follow their advice on diet, activities, and prescriptions for a smooth recovery.
  • The procedure may last for 1-2 hours, depending on the severity of the conditions, surgical approach, and the patient’s overall health and age, whereas initial recovery may take up to 1-2 weeks.

Benefits:

  • Immediate symptom relief
  • Reduced need for future surgery
  • Cancer risk reduction
  • Improved quality of life

Benefits:

  • Improved quality of life
  • Long-term relief
  • Enhanced quality of life
  • Minimally invasive option

Preview: Uterine artery or uterine fibroid embolisation (UAE/UFE) is a nonsurgical alternative to hysterectomy or myomectomy. It aims to treat uterine fibroids by blocking their blood supply and making them shrink, alleviating symptoms like pain and heavy bleeding.

Surgical Steps

  • A contrast dye is injected into the bloodstream to visualise blood vessels on an X-ray film and help diagnose the affected uterine arteries.
  • Tiny particles (embolic agents/microspheres) are injected into the uterine arteries via the catheter, causing blockage of the blood flow to the fibroids and allowing them to shrink and reduce symptoms over time.

Benefits:

  • Minimally invasive
  • Uterus preservation
  • Reduced risk of complications.
  • Immediate symptom relief
  • Cost-effective

Preview: Normal delivery aims to deliver the baby through the birth canal with minimal surgical intervention, or utilise the C-section method when the normal delivery is unsafe.

Surgical Preparations for Delivery

  • When preparing for childbirth, the patient must have all the medical records, discuss presurgical or postsurgical medication and vaccinations, and wear comfortable clothing, always carrying a relaxing kit.
  • Consult with your doctor to manage high-risk conditions such as preeclampsia or gestational diabetes and recognise any membrane rupture or contractions.
  • Recovery after childbirth through a C-section requires a gynecologist’s assistance with instructions like avoiding heavy lifting and strenuous activity to promote healing.

Benefits:

  • Reduces the risk of pain during birth, injury to the vagina, and loss of bladder control.
  • Faster recovery
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Makes breastfeeding easier

  • Surgical Sperm Retrieval: The surgeons obtain the sperm from the reproductive tract when they are absent from the ejaculate through sperm aspiration procedures.
  • Tubal Ligation Reversal Procedure: This process involves joining the two cut ends of the fallopian tubes.
