Laparoscopic Surgery for Endometriosis

Laparoscopy is the most common kind of procedure which is used to diagnose the happenings internally, mostly in the abdominal part. It is done using an instrument called as laparoscope and is used to remove mild to moderate endometriosis. Instead of using a large abdominal incision, the Gynecologist Laparoscopic surgeon in Delhi inserts a lighted viewing instrument called a laparoscope through a small incision. If the surgeon needs better access, he or she makes one or two more small incisions for inserting other surgical instruments.

Before the procedure one need not eat or drink for at least 8 hours and it is usually done under general anesthesia, a Gynecologist Laparoscopic surgeon in Delhi performs the procedure. While doing this procedure the abdomen is inflated with gas. The surgeon then inserts a laparoscope through a small incision and examines the internal organs. If endometriosis or scar tissue needs to be removed, your surgeon will use one of various techniques, including cutting and removing tissue or destroying it with a laser beam or electric current.


Laparoscopy is usually done at an outpatient facility and the patient need not stay for a long time at the hospital. As with hormone therapy, surgery relieves endometriosis pain for most women. But it does not guarantee long-lasting results. More than 50 out of 100 women have symptoms return within 2 years after surgery. Complications from the surgery are rare. Very rarely one might face uncontrolled bleeding that results in the need for a larger abdominal incision to stop the bleeding.
