About Laparoscopic Salpingectomy

Laparoscopic salpingectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed by an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist to remove one or both fallopian tubes. Using a laparoscope, a thin, lighted tube with a camera, inserted through small incisions in the abdomen, the surgeon visualizes the pelvic organs and carefully detaches and removes the affected tube(s). This procedure is commonly performed to treat ectopic pregnancy, prevent ovarian cancer in high-risk patients, manage pelvic inflammatory disease, or as a permanent method of sterilization. Compared to traditional open surgery, it offers significant benefits like reduced pain, minimal scarring, shorter hospital stay, and a faster return to normal activities. It is a precise and effective intervention for various gynaecological conditions.
