Uterine Myomectomy
& Fertility Preservation
Specialized surgical removal of uterine fibroids designed to relieve symptoms while preserving your uterus and reproductive health.
What is a Myomectomy?
A myomectomy is a surgical procedure used to remove uterine fibroids—noncancerous growths in the uterus. Unlike a hysterectomy, which removes the entire uterus, a myomectomy only removes the fibroids and reconstructs the uterine wall.
This procedure is the gold standard for women who experience heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, or pressure, but wish to maintain their childbearing potential or simply prefer to keep their uterus.

Methods of Removal
Laparoscopic Myomectomy
Using "keyhole" incisions and specialized instruments, this minimally invasive approach is ideal for smaller or fewer fibroids, offering minimal scarring and a rapid 1-2 week recovery.
Abdominal (Open) Myomectomy
A traditional approach used for very large, numerous, or deeply embedded fibroids. This allows the surgeon direct access to safely remove complex growths and perform extensive uterine repair.
Hysteroscopic Myomectomy
For fibroids located inside the uterine cavity (submucosal), removal is performed through the vagina using a scope, requiring no external incisions and providing a near-immediate recovery.
