Treatment of uterine fibroids
Uterine fibroids can cause unpleasant symptoms, as well as reduce fertility. Modern treatment methods make it possible to remove fibroids, preserving the uterus and reproductive function,
The risk of developing uterine fibroids during life is about 80%, and most often it occurs in women aged 30 to 50 years, during the middle reproductive age.
Fibroids can be accompanied by copious and painful menstruation, pelvic pain, frequent urination and fertility problems. Fibroids rarely turn into sarcoma, a malignant tumor. We offer modern methods of treatment of uterine fibroids, which avoid complete removal of the organ. Laparoscopy and hysteroresectoscopy are minimally invasive interventions aimed at removing myomatous nodes with minimal damage to surrounding tissues.
For surgical treatment of uterine fibroids are used: Laparoscope and hysteroresectoscope with video camera Surgical instruments (scalpels, forceps, coagulators)
Before surgical treatment of uterine fibroids, it is necessary to: Consult with a gynecologist and a surgeon Perform general blood and urine tests Perform an ultrasound examination (ultrasound) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess the condition of the myometrium Perform a diagnostic hysteroscopy
Surgical treatment of uterine fibroids is performed using anesthesia. Laparoscopy allows access to myomatous nodes through small punctures on the anterior wall of the abdomen. Using a laparoscope, a thin instrument with a video camera, the surgeon finds and removes myomatous nodes under visual control. This allows you to save the organ and reduce the risk of recurrence of fibroids. Hysteroresectoscopy is used to remove fibroids located inside the uterine cavity. The doctor inserts a hysteroresectoscope through the vagina into the uterine cavity and removes myomatous nodes without damaging the integrity of the uterus. This procedure avoids scarring of the endometrium and preserves the ability to conceive.
After surgical treatment of uterine fibroids, it is important to follow the doctor's recommendations for successful recovery. During 4-6 weeks, it is necessary to refrain from intense physical exertion, avoid visiting the sauna, steam room and solarium, and also avoid hypothermia.
Preparation for organ-preserving treatment of uterine fibroids
During the consultation, the gynecologist-surgeon examines the patient. A comprehensive diagnosis is prescribed: blood and urine tests, a vaginal swab for bakposev. Ultrasound of the pelvic organs and diagnostic hysteroscopy are also performed. Based on the data obtained, the doctor selects the type of operation and determines the time of its implementation. Usually minimally invasive surgery is performed in the first half of the menstrual cycle.
Surgery Surgical treatment of uterine fibroids
Surgical treatment of uterine fibroids is performed using spinal or general anesthesia. Laparoscopy gives access to the foci of fibroids through micro-punctures on the anterior wall of the abdomen. With the help of a laparoscope, a gynecological surgeon finds a tumor and removes myomatous nodes under visual control. Hysteroresectoscopy is performed using a hysteroresectoscope, which is inserted into the uterine cavity through the vagina. The doctor carefully examines the organ, studying the localization, size and shape of the altered tissues, while preserving the uterus.
Rehabilitation after organ-preserving treatment for uterine fibroids
After treatment, it is important to follow the prescriptions and recommendations of a gynecologist. It is necessary to temporarily refrain from visiting the sauna, bathhouse, solarium, avoid hypothermia, control menstruation and note the soreness of secretions. Usually, the next step after minimally invasive surgery is conservative treatment in order to prevent recurrence of the disease.
