In addition to performing gynecological surgery, some of the minimally invasive surgical techniques the team uses, also assist in diagnosing a gynecological condition. 


What are the types of minimally invasive surgery?

The team at Advanced Obstetrics & Gynecology, LLC, performs several minimally invasive surgical procedures. Some of the most common include:

Laparoscopy

During a laparoscopy, your surgeon performs your procedure using a laparoscope (surgical camera) and special surgical instruments inserted into your abdominal area through small incisions. 

Endometrial ablation

During an endometrial ablation, your OB/GYN at Advanced Obstetrics & Gynecology, LLC, ablates the lining of your uterus to stop heavy menstrual bleeding using a special tool. 

Hysteroscopy

The hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure the team uses to diagnose and treat gynecological conditions, such as adhesions.

Loop electrical surgical excision procedure (LEEP)

LEEP is a minimally invasive procedure that removes abnormal cells from the cervix. 

Dilation and curettage (D&C)

During a D&C, your OB/GYN opens your cervix and inserts a thin instrument into your uterus to remove tissue. You may need a D&C to assist in the diagnosis of your heavy bleeding or after a miscarriage.
