Several complex surgical procedures are frequently performed in gynecology:
1. Hysterectomy: This is the removal of the uterus and is often performed to treat uterine fibroids, endometriosis, or cancer. 2. Myomectomy: This procedure involves the removal of fibroids while preserving the uterus, often chosen by women who wish to retain their fertility. 3. Oophorectomy: The surgical removal of one or both ovaries, typically indicated in cases of ovarian cancer or severe endometriosis. 4. Pelvic Exenteration: A radical surgery involving the removal of pelvic organs, usually performed for advanced gynecologic cancers. 5. Laparoscopic Surgery: Minimally invasive surgery that uses small incisions and a camera to perform procedures like hysterectomies or endometriosis excision.
