Endoscopy | Diagnostic Laparoscopy & Hysteroscopy

Diagnostic Laparoscopy & Hysteroscopy

  • Performed for Primary & secondary Infertility & B.O.H.
  • Diagnostic Laparoscopy & Hysteroscopy is the commonest type of work up in the entire Infertility patient. Single puncture Laparoscopy was replaced by double puncture Laparoscopy in most of the centers of the world. We must record both Laparoscopy & Hysteroscopy for future important record in Infertility patient, for second opinion & for deciding future treatment protocol. Observing free spill with methyline blue from both fallopian tubes is not enough/complete work up during laparoscopy. We must see on both ovarian fosses after lifting the tubes for the possibilities of Endometriosis. We must see for Tuberculosis, Endometriosis & PID in all the cases. Hysteroscopy requires dilatation of the cervix and flushes both fallopian tubes with high pressure fluid helps in achieving very good fertility enhancing results following Endoscopy in infertility patients. Addressing all the infertility related lesions like PCOD, Endometriosis, Adhesiolysis, Fibroid etc. helps us in treating infertility patients in the same sitting.
  • Just below Umblicus small needle is introduced and Co2 gas is insufflated inside abdomen. Rather than creating a large incision and opening up the body, tiny incisions are made and a laparoscope is inserted. This slim scope has a lighted end. It takes pictures – actually fiber optic images – and sends them to a monitor so the surgeon can see what is going on inside.
  • Performing laparoscopy usually only requires two tiny incisions less than one half inch, (about 5-10 millimeters) in length. One incision is made just below the navel, and another is usually made near the bikini line. The first incision allows a needle to be injected into the abdomen so carbon dioxide gas can be pumped inside the cavity of the abdomen which helps to keep intestines & omentum up and away from organs. This allows the surgeon a better view and more working space to maneuver the laparoscope and surgical tools as needed. Using small incisions rather than opening the abdomen lessens recovery time as well as discomfort and makes surgical scars less noticeable.
  • Many patients undergo laparoscopy as an outpatient procedure, returning home within 4 to 6 hours of surgery. For normal laparoscopy procedure takes about 5 to 10 minutes only. Most begin feeling much better within one day.
  • Routine charges are from Rs. 7,000 to 10,000/- in normal cases without operative intervention.

PCOD Drilling & Hysteroscopy

  • Performed for Primary & secondary Infertility & B.O.H.
  • Patient present to us with Obesity, hirsutisium, irregular/delayed cycles, anovulation & Infertility. TVUSG shows peripherally placed multiple follicles with hyperthicosis of stroma & large ovaries. PCOD drilling is indicated in Clomiphen resistant PCOD, where weight reduction & metformin had been tried sufficiently (for six months) in the past. As compared to Gonadotrophin (pure FSH), PCOD drilling had following advantages : 60-70% Ovulation rate, 40-50% Pregnancy rate, reduced abortion & OHSS following drilling, reduced requirement of CC.HMG/FSH/hCG following drilling. Effect of drilling lasts for nine months. According to the size of ovary 4 to 8 punctures should be made on both ovaries. One must understand the difference between Cystic ovary & PCOD.

Endometriosis- Bilateral Chocolate Cyst

  • Performed for Infertility or pain in lower abdomen during menstrual period and painful sexual relations
  • Dysmenorrohea, Dysparenunia & pelvic pain & Infertility are the presenting symptoms. Endometriosis is the commonest cause of Infertility during Laparoscopy. Pigmented & white fibrotic lesions are the two different varieties of lesions. Endometriosis is poorly detected during laparoscopy leads to more than 2-3 laparoscopy of infertility patient without result. Endometriosis needs to better address during laparoscopy, as residual diseases leads to recurrence & Infertility. Lot of awareness needs to be generated among Gynecologists for its identification during Laparoscopy, right treatment & documentation during surgery, proper post operative aggressive fertility treatment within nine months as it may reoccur after nine months & follow up. Most rewarding results were achieved following laparoscopic surgery with pregnancy rate from 50 to 70% in different series in mild, moderate to severe Endometriosis.Cystectomy should be preffered over simple drainage for preventing reoccurrence. But if we feel that cystectomy dissection is too difficult & likely to destroy many normal ovarian follicles, we should do drainage & bipolar fulguration of internal surface of chocolate cyst. Rectovaginal endometriosis is not touched most of the time during laparoscopy. We need to learn, identify the right cleavage & proper dissection of recto-vaginal nodule for her pain relief. With increased awareness will find out more & more incidences of Endometriosis during Diagnostic laparoscopy.

Ectopic Pregnancy

  • Performed for pain in lower abdomen with H/o amenorrhea and Bleeding P/v and TVUSG showing tender adnexal mass.
  • More than 90% cases of Ectopic pregnancy cases are now treated by Laparoscopy all over the world. Important pre-requisite for laparoscopic management is – Patient should be haemodynamically stable. Ruptured Ectopic should be treated by salpingectomy as in subsequent pregnancy chances of repeat Ectopic will be more. Goal should be diagnosing Ectopic pregnancy in its asymptomatic/ enraptured stage so we can offer medical treatment with Methotraxate or Salpingostomy or Tubal milking for preservation of affected tube. Copious irrigation is necessary to prevent post-operative adhesions. Recording the surgery helps another consultant for the decision of Salpingostomy/Salpingectomy during past surgery. Procedure takes hardly 30 minutes & patient can be discharged on the same day like Lap.T.L.

Laparoscopic Adhesiolysis

  • Performed for pain in lower abdomen.
  • PID, Tuberculosis, Endometriosis & past surgeries are the commonest causes of adhesions around pelvic genital organs. Tubercles with intestinal adhesions & adhesions all over abdomen & around liver- one should suspect Abdominal Tuberculosis. Here we must give adequate AKT before attempting Adhesiolysis. Aim of Adhesiolysis during diagnostic laparoscopy is to establish tubo-ovarian relationship. Post laparotomy adhesions are found in 20-70% of cases following various Gynecological surgeries leading to subsequent abdominal wall adhesions & posy operative pain requiring laparoscopic Adhesiolysis. Fact may inspire all patients to ask primary surgeon for not offering initial Gynaec surgery by Laparoscopic approach. Adhesiolysis is the most rewarding surgery in pain relief.

Laparoscopic Vaginoplasty

  • Patient’s parents visits to us when their daughter does not menstruate after the age of 15-17 years of age for her fertility concern before marriage. In patient with absent uterus is evaluated for associated renal malformations.
  • As compared to usual method (skin graft from thigh) patient’s on peritoneum is utilized for Vaginoplasty. Vaginal space is dissected in usual way after putting Folly’s catheter in urethra and rectal probe in rectum. Laparoscopic light & pnumo helps during dissection. Peritoneum is cathched with artery forcep, opened from below under laparoscopic guidance and circumferentially mobilized down till we can take tension free stitch with labia minora. Then vagina is closed with mop to prevent leakage of pneumoperitoneum and at the level of pelvic brim purse string stitches are taken to close vaginal upper end with No-1 vicryl stitch & approximating with extra corporeal stitch. This technique gives two cms wide vagina & 8-10 cms long vagina and good quality of sexual function and patient discharged on the next day & with minimum requirement of postoperative care. This surgery requires lot of experience & expertise.

Laparoscopic Vault (Prolapse) Repair

  • Performed for Menorrhagia, pain in lower abdomen or for any of the indication for removal of the uterus. In P/v examination and TVUSG showing positive findings.
  • Laparoscopic approach is especially helpful with previous abdominal adhesions, previous 1/2/3/.4 LSCS, with adnexal mass & for very large uterus, Endometriosis, PID. Total laparoscopic hysterectomy is going to become popular, as we have understood pelvic floor support better. Good Bipolar cautery performance is must during LH. We believe that we can do NDVH up to 12-14 wks size uterus easily, along with laparoscopic McCall’s culdoplasty- Both utero-sacral ligaments are attached with anterior & posterior vaginal vault with non absorbable suture material after NDVH is very easy procedure & ideal way of vault support. Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH) gives better sexual quality after operation compared to other methods. Even removal of both ovaries is safer with Laparoscopic approach. Removal of ovaries must be discussed with patient to understand menopausal protocols in future. Chances of post operative vault prolapse are less with Laparoscopic hysterectomy compared to NDVH.

Laparoscopic Tubal Ligation

  • Performed for family planning purpose permanently. In event of future death of child reversal of Lap TL will give better chances of successful reversal operation as minimum length of tube is compromised in Lap. T.L.
  • Laparoscopic Tubal ligation was the simplest operation from very beginning. In government set up it was done under local anesthesia & sedation. In private set up it was always done under general anesthesia & intubation. Severe obesity & previous scars over the abdomen were considered to be relative contraindication for laparoscopic approach in the past. With advancement and better understanding the advantages of laparoscopic surgeries, now severe obesity & previous scars over the abdomen are the most common indications for laparoscopic approach, where in we can remove omental & intestinal adhesions with abdominal wall during laparoscopic Tubal ligation operation, which may help her from relief of occasional pain due to adhesions of previous scar. Palmer’s point is the choice of site for primary 10/5 mm port, in cases of previous scar over abdomen. Through Umblicus will be the choice of primary 10 mm port, in case of severe obesity. Recording also helps in conveying the quality of loop made during laparoscopy of both fallopian tubes. In young patient with children’s age less than/around 5 years, Laparoscopic T.L. has better success rate following tubal reversal compared to abdominal T.L. in event of death of her children in future.

Rather than creating a large incision and opening up the body, tiny incisions are made and a laparoscope is inserted. This slim scope has a lighted end. It takes pictures – actually fiber optic images – and sends them to a monitor so the surgeon can see what is going on inside.
  • Performing laparoscopy usually only requires three tiny incisions less than one half inch, (about 5-10 millimeters) in length. One incision is made just below the navel, and another is usually made near the bikini line. The first incision allows a needle to be injected into the abdomen so carbon dioxide gas can be pumped inside the cavity of the abdomen which helps to keep intestines & omentum up and away from organs. This allows the surgeon a better view and more working space to maneuver the laparoscope and surgical tools as needed. Using small incisions rather than opening the abdomen lessens recovery time as well as discomfort and makes surgical scars less noticeable.
  • Many patients undergo laparoscopy as Day care procedure, returning home within 24 hours of surgery. For normal laparoscopy procedure takes about 15 to 35 minutes only. For more complicated case it may take 1-2 hour. Most begin feeling much better within one day.

Hysteroscopy

Hysteroscopy provides a way for your doctor to look inside your uterus. A hysteroscope is a thin, telescope-like instrument that is inserted into the uterus through the vagina and cervix. This tool often helps a doctor diagnose or treat a uterine problem. Hysteroscopy is minor surgery which is performed either in your physician’s office without anesthesia or in an Operation Theatre setting. It can be performed with local, regional, or general anesthesia–sometimes no anesthesia is needed.

Hysteroscopic surgery: –When an operation is performed in side the uterine cavity

Office Hysteroscopy is a procedure performed to evaluate the internal architecture of the uterine cavity through direct visual inspection- procedure described as Diagnostic Hysteroscopy and to remove surface lesions that protrude into the cavity (e.g., polyps, adhesions, a septum, or to pass a thin catheter through one or both fallopian tubes- described as Operative hysteroscopy. Hysteroscopy is usually performed under a light sedation and anesthetic administered intravenously by an in-house anesthesiologist. For patients who have had a vaginal delivery before, and for those with an easily negotiable cervical canal, it is possible to perform the hysteroscopy with only local anesthetic. In addition, patients who have not had a vaginal delivery in the past, but who have a high pain tolerance and a low level of anxiety, may do their hysteroscopy under local anesthetic (Para cervical blockade).

What Happens During The Hysteroscopy Procedure?

  • The opening of your cervix may need to be dilated or made wider with special instruments.
  • The hysteroscope is inserted through your vagina and cervix, and into your uterus.
  • Next a liquid or gas is usually released through the hysteroscope to expand your uterus so your physician will have a better view of the inside.
  • A light source attached with the hysteroscope allows your physician to see the inside of the uterus and the openings of the fallopian tubes into the uterine cavity.
  • If surgery is required, small instruments are inserted through the hysteroscope.

How Will I Feel After A Hysteroscopy?

Some patients may experience shoulder pain following laparoscopy or when gas is used to expand the uterus (Today we are using Normal saline for the distention medium during Hysteroscopy). Once the gas is absorbed the discomfort should subside quickly. You may feel faint or sick, or you may have slight vaginal bleeding and cramps for 1-2 days following the procedure.

Contact your Doctor if you develop any of the following after your hysteroscopy:

  • Fever
  • Severe abdominal pain
  • Heavy vaginal bleeding or discharge
  • Injury to the cervix or uterus
  • Infection
  • Heavy bleeding
  • Side effects from the anesthesia

Although general anesthesia is sometimes used, in the majority of cases it is not necessary. Hysteroscopy allows your physician to see inside your uterus and aids in the accurate diagnosis of some medical problems. The procedure and recovery time are usually short. Patient can start doing normal activity after 4 to 6 hours after Hysteroscopy most of the time.
