Myomectomy (Surgical Removal of Fibroids)
Myomectomy is the surgical removal of fibroids from the uterus. It is a technically more difficult procedure than a hysterectomy, where the whole uterus is removed.
When possible, Dr. Robertson will perform a myomectomy utilising a minimally invasive approach (laparoscopic or key hole surgery). Laparoscopic myomentcomy has proven benefits of better vision, less blood loss, less postoperative pain, shorter recovery and better cosmesis.
Dr. Robertson has has extensive training in minimally invasive removal of fibroids.
