Laparoscopic Services
Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows doctors to diagnose and treat conditions within the abdomen and pelvis. Using a laparoscope—a small, tube-like instrument equipped with a camera—Dr. Nirmala Chandrashekar can examine and treat various gynecological issues through small incisions, offering patients a safe and effective alternative to traditional open surgery.
When is Laparoscopy Recommended?
Laparoscopy is commonly used for diagnosing and treating gynecological conditions, including:
- Endometriosis: To identify and remove endometrial tissue that may be causing pain or infertility.
- Ovarian Cysts and Tumors: To evaluate and treat cysts or tumors in the ovaries.
- Fibroids: To remove uterine fibroids that may cause heavy bleeding or discomfort.
- Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID): To evaluate and treat infection-related scarring in the pelvic area.
- Ectopic Pregnancy: To treat a pregnancy that has implanted outside the uterus.
- Unexplained Pelvic Pain: To investigate and identify the cause of chronic pelvic pain.
With the precision of laparoscopic surgery, Dr. Nirmala can accurately diagnose conditions and provide targeted treatments, minimizing recovery time and optimizing outcomes.
The Laparoscopic Procedure
Dr. Nirmala performs laparoscopy as a minimally invasive outpatient procedure, which generally involves the following steps:
- Preparation: The patient is prepped and administered anesthesia to ensure a comfortable and pain-free experience.
- Insertion of the Laparoscope: A small incision is made near the belly button, and the laparoscope is inserted to visualize the abdominal and pelvic organs. Additional small incisions may be made for surgical instruments if treatment is required.
- Diagnosis and Treatment: Depending on the findings, Dr. Nirmala may perform the necessary procedures, such as removing cysts, fibroids, or scar tissue, or correcting other abnormalities.
Throughout the procedure, Dr. Nirmala’s focus is on delivering safe and precise care, minimizing risks, and maximizing patient comfort.
Benefits of Laparoscopy
Laparoscopy offers several significant advantages over traditional surgery:
- Minimal Scarring: Smaller incisions lead to reduced scarring and a better cosmetic outcome.
- Faster Recovery: Most patients experience less pain post-surgery and can return to normal activities sooner than with open surgery.
- Reduced Pain and Discomfort: The minimally invasive nature of the procedure minimizes postoperative pain.
- Accurate Diagnosis and Targeted Treatment: Laparoscopy enables a clear view of internal organs, leading to accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
Dr. Nirmala’s experience in laparoscopic surgery ensures that patients receive high-quality, minimally invasive care.
Recovery and Aftercare
Following laparoscopy, patients can expect:
- Short Recovery Time: Most patients are able to go home the same day, with a recovery period of just a few days to a week.
- Mild Symptoms: Some mild soreness, particularly near the incision sites, may be experienced and typically resolves quickly.
- Follow-Up: Dr. Nirmala provides detailed instructions on post-surgery care and schedules follow-up visits to monitor recovery and ensure optimal healing.
Dr. Nirmala’s team is available to support patients during the recovery process, offering guidance and answering any questions for a smooth and comfortable experience.
