What is Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy?
Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH) is a gynecological operation that uses small incisions to remove the uterus and cervix. The operation is carried out with the use of a laparoscope. If your operation is to treat cancer, it may also remove ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic lymph nodes.
Who Needs Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy?
Uterine Fibroids:
Benign growths in the uterus that cause pain, heavy bleeding, and discomfort.
Endometriosis:
In this condition, the tissue lining the uterus grows outside the uterus. It can lead to pain and inflammation.
Uterine Prolapse:
When the uterus descends into the vaginal canal as a result of weakening support structures
Chronic Pelvic Pain:
Persistent pelvic pain that does not respond to conservative treatments.
Abnormal Uterine Bleeding:
Excessive or irregular menstrual bleeding that negatively impacts daily life.
Benefits of Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy
Minimally Invasive:
The surgery requires only small incisions, resulting in less scarring, reduced pain, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
Shorter Hospital Stay:
Most patients can go home within 24 hours after the surgery, leading to a quicker return to daily activities.
Reduced Blood Loss:
The minimally invasive approach minimizes blood loss during surgery.
Preservation of Ovaries:
In some cases, the ovaries can be preserved during TLH, allowing the individual to retain hormonal function.
Before Surgery
Consultation with a Gynecologist:
Schedule a consultation with a gynecologist to discuss your medical history, symptoms, and the need for the surgery.
Medical Evaluation:
Undergo a thorough medical evaluation, including pelvic examination and imaging tests, to assess the condition of the uterus and surrounding structures.
Medication Review:
It is neceary to inform the surgeon about all the medications,OTC drugs, supplements, or herbal remedies you are taking, as some may need to be adjusted before surgery.
Fasting:
Typically, patients are required to fast for several hours before the procedure.
During the Procedure
The surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia to ensure the patient's comfort and safety. A catheter (a tube used for urine drainage) is then inserted into the bladder for urine management. A small incision, approximately 2 cm in size, is made in or around the navel (belly button). The abdomen is filled with gas, and a laparoscope (optical instrument) is inserted to visualize the internal organs. Additional small incisions, about 1 cm each, are made on the abdomen to accommodate other surgical instruments. The ovaries and fallopian tubes may or may not be removed depending on the surgical indication. The uterus and cervix are usually removed via the vaginal route. If the uterus is too large or the vagina is narrow, a slightly larger incision is made on the abdomen for removal. The incisions are closed using dissolvable stitches or skin glue (surgical adhesive).
After Surgery
Hospital Stay:
Patient will be admitted for at least one day to monitor their health. A patient will have a catheter inserted into her bladder to drain urine, which will be withdrawn either that evening or the next morning. Additionally, the patient may experience vaginal bleeding.
Recovery Timeline:
Most patients can resume light activities within a few days, but complete healing may take several weeks.
Pain Management:
Pain medications are prescribed to manage any discomfort experienced after the surgery.
Follow-Up Appointments:
Regular follow-up visits with the surgeon are essential to monitor healing and address any concerns.
Types of Surgery
Total Abdominal Hysterectomy (TAH):
The uterus is removed through an open abdominal incision.
Vaginal Hysterectomy:
During this procedure the uterus is removed through the vaginal canal, without any external incisions.
Recovery Time after the Surgery
The recovery time after Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy varies from person to person. Most patients can start their light activities within a few days to weeks, while complete recovery may take up to six weeks.
Risk Associated with the Surgery
Infection:
There is a small risk of infection at the surgical site, although it can be treated with antibiotics if necessary.
Injury to Surrounding Organs:
Rarely, adjacent organs, such as the bladder or bowel, may be unintentionally injured during the procedure, requiring further intervention.
Blood Clots:
Following surgery, there is a small risk of forming blood clots in the legs (DVT).
Bloated stomach:
Some patients may experience abdominal bloating and discomfort post-surgery, which usually resolves with time and appropriate care.
Vaginal discharge:
It is common to have some vaginal discharge after the procedure, but any unusual or foul-smelling discharge should be promptly reported to the healthcare provider.
Chest infection:
In some cases, patients may develop a chest infection after surgery, especially if they have pre-existing respiratory conditions or risk factors.
Urinary tract infection (UTI):
There is a possibility of developing a UTI following the surgery. UTI can be managed with antibiotics and by staying hydrated.
Alternate Procedures Available
Laparoscopic Supracervical Hysterectomy (LSH):
Removes the uterus while preserving the cervix.
Robot-Assisted Hysterectomy:
Utilizes robotic technology to assist with the surgery, providing enhanced precision.
