Minimally Invasive Gynecological Surgery
Laparoscopic and hysteroscopic surgery represents the gold standard in modern gynaecology — allowing complex surgical problems to be addressed through tiny incisions or through the natural body opening, with significantly less pain, faster recovery, and better cosmetic outcomes than traditional open surgery.
Dr. Unnati Mamtora has extensive training and experience in advanced minimally invasive gynaecological surgery, including complex laparoscopic procedures for endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, and adhesions, as well as diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy. Her training spans leading institutions in India and includes advanced operative techniques acquired during her fellowship at Kiel University, Germany.
Laparoscopic Procedures Offered
Laparoscopic Myomectomy
Removal of uterine fibroids through keyhole incisions, preserving the uterus. Suitable for intramural and subserosal fibroids.
Laparoscopic Endometriosis Surgery
Excision or ablation of endometriotic lesions, removal of ovarian endometriomas (chocolate cysts), and restoration of pelvic anatomy.
Ovarian Cystectomy
Laparoscopic removal of benign ovarian cysts, with careful preservation of healthy ovarian tissue to protect ovarian reserve.
Adhesiolysis
Division and removal of pelvic adhesions (scar tissue) that may be causing pain or blocking the fallopian tubes, restoring natural anatomy.
Diagnostic Laparoscopy
A definitive diagnostic procedure to investigate unexplained pelvic pain, infertility, or suspected endometriosis when imaging is inconclusive.
Tubal Surgery
Laparoscopic salpingectomy (removal of a diseased fallopian tube), salpingostomy, and management of ectopic pregnancy.
Hysteroscopic Procedures Offered
Diagnostic Hysteroscopy
Direct visualisation of the uterine cavity to identify polyps, fibroids, adhesions, septa, or abnormal bleeding sources.
Polypectomy
Removal of uterine polyps under direct vision through the hysteroscope — no incisions required. Often resolves abnormal bleeding and improves implantation rates.
Hysteroscopic Myomectomy
Resection of submucosal fibroids via the hysteroscope, eliminating cavity distortion and improving endometrial receptivity.
Adhesion Resection (Asherman's)
Division of intrauterine adhesions in Asherman's syndrome, restoring a normal uterine cavity and improving fertility outcomes.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Surgery
- Smaller incisions — minimal scarring
- Significantly less post-operative pain
- Faster return to normal activities (usually 1–2 weeks vs 4–6 weeks for open surgery)
- Lower risk of infection and blood loss
- Shorter hospital stay (often same-day or overnight)
- Equivalent or superior surgical outcomes to open procedures
