Diagnostic and Operative Hysteroscopy in Nicosia
What is a hysteroscopy?
Hysteroscopy, also known as uterine endoscopy, is a minimally invasive procedure where a hysteroscope (a thin, illuminated camera) is inserted into the uterine cavity to examine the interior of the uterus. Diagnostic hysteroscopy allows for precise diagnosis of uterine conditions such as fibroids, polyps, adhesions, or malformations
The Steps of a Hysteroscopy
Before the surgery, the patient receives a detailed briefing about the procedure along with a comprehensive overview of potential surgical risks.
Under anesthesia, a slender illuminated camera is introduced through the cervical orifice into the uterine cavity, transmitting real-time images from inside the uterus directly to a monitor situated within the operating room. In certain instances, gentle cervix dilation is performed using specialized instruments.
Depending on the operation’s nature, additional instruments may be introduced through slots in the hysteroscope, such as for polyp removal or adhesion dissolution.
The patient may be discharged after a brief recovery period in the clinic.
