About Hysteroscopic Metroplasty

Hysteroscopic metroplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed by an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist to correct congenital uterine anomalies, specifically a septate uterus. Using a hysteroscope, a thin, lighted tube with a camera, inserted through the vagina and cervix, the surgeon visualizes the uterine cavity and precisely resects (cuts away) the fibrous or muscular septum dividing it. This restores a normal, single uterine cavity, which is crucial for improving fertility outcomes and reducing the risk of miscarriage and preterm birth. The procedure is typically outpatient, avoids external incisions, and offers faster recovery compared to traditional abdominal surgery.

Key Highlights

    Minimally invasive procedure with no external abdominal incisions.Performed on an outpatient basis, often allowing same-day discharge.Significantly improves fertility outcomes and chances of a successful pregnancy.Reduces the risk of recurrent miscarriages and preterm delivery.Uses a hysteroscope for direct visualization, ensuring precise correction.Generally involves less pain and a faster recovery compared to open surgery./ul
