In conjunction with non-invasive treatments, gynaecological operations are commonly performed to treat conditions involving a woman’s genitourinary system, including the vagina, uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries or pelvic cavity. While some surgeries are easy to perform, others can be more complex, requiring a longer hospital stay and recovery.
Minimally invasive surgical procedures
Dr Joseph has advanced training qualifications and extensive experience in performing minimally invasive laparoscopic gynaecological procedures.
Gynaecological laparoscopic surgeries, otherwise known as endoscopic or keyhole surgeries, are used for both diagnosis and treatment of many common gynaecological conditions. Using a small surgical telescope and video camera, these allow procedures to be performed with only minor incisions. This means a faster operation, less post-operative pain, smaller scars, and a faster recovery time.
Examples where laparoscopic surgery may be useful include the diagnosis of pelvic pain, fertility assessments, diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis, prolapse surgery, and the removal of cysts, tubes, ovaries or the uterus (hysterectomy).
The expected recovery time varies depending on the specific gynaecological surgery performed. Likewise, post-operative care and follow-up requirements will vary from patient to patient and largely depend on the reason for surgery. Dr. Joseph will guide you through each step of the process to ensure the best possible outcome following your surgery.
