Laparoscopy Surgery

What is Laparoscopy (Keyhole Surgery)?

Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat fertility-related issues. A thin tube with a camera (laparoscope) and surgical instruments are inserted through small incisions in the abdomen, allowing doctors to view and operate on reproductive organs without open surgery.

This technique is commonly used to treat endometriosis, ovarian cysts, fibroids, tubal blockages, adhesions, and other structural issues that may affect fertility.

When is Laparoscopy Recommended?

Doctors may recommend laparoscopy if you have:

• Unexplained infertility after other treatments
• Chronic pelvic pain or suspected endometriosis
• Repeated miscarriages due to uterine abnormalities
• Tubal blockages (seen in HSG scan)
• Ovarian cysts or uterine fibroids
• Pelvic inflammatory disease
• History of ectopic pregnancy

Stages of Laparoscopy Treatment

• Preparation – You’ll be under general anesthesia.
• Incision & Scope Insertion – A small cut is made in the abdomen to insert the laparoscope.
• Gas Inflation – CO₂ gas is used to inflate the abdomen for better visibility.
• Diagnosis & Treatment – The doctor examines and treats issues as needed.
• Closure & Recovery – Instruments are removed and incisions are closed.

Possible Risks and Considerations

While generally safe, risks include:
