Hysterectomy Q&A

What is a hysterectomy?

A hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove some or all of a woman’s reproductive organs. A partial hysterectomy typically involves removing the uterus, and a total hysterectomy involves removing the cervix, uterus, and, in some cases, your ovaries and fallopian tubes.

Dr. Sejour might recommend a hysterectomy to treat:

  • Endometriosis
  • Uterine prolapse
  • Uterine fibroids
  • Heavy vaginal bleeding
  • Cancer of the ovaries, cervix, endometrium, or uterus

 

Dr. Sejour can perform hysterectomies vaginally or abdominally, depending on the individual and type of hysterectomy. He also provides minimally invasive hysterectomies using an innovative, state-of-the-art robotic-assisted system called da Vinci.

Once you’ve had a hysterectomy, you can’t become pregnant, so if you’re not ready to end your fertility, you should consider other treatments.

What is da Vinci robotic-assisted surgery?

 

Dr. Sejour uses the da Vinci robotic-assisted system to perform a number of minimally invasive gynecological surgeries, including hysterectomies. The system allows surgeons to perform surgeries with heightened accuracy, utilizing the latest in robotics technology.

During the procedure, Dr. Sejour operates the robotic arms of the system. The robotic arms have special surgical tools and tiny cameras attached to transmit video to a high-definition monitor. Dr. Sejour views the monitor and performs the surgery.

The da Vinci instruments have tiny wrists that can rotate and bend better than the human hand for optimal control and precision.

Who is a good candidate for da Vinci robotic-assisted surgery?

To be considered a good candidate for da Vinci surgery, Dr. Sejour needs to clear you for the procedure after an evaluation.

The da Vinci system is effective for most gynecologic surgeries and most hysterectomies. Some medical cases might warrant an alternative option, for example, if an enlarged fibroid fills the entire pelvic cavity and blocks the camera view.

Dr. Sejour helps you determine the right type of surgery for you and gives you plenty of information to ensure you’re fully prepared.

What are the benefits of robotic surgery?

Da Vinci robotic-assisted surgery offers many benefits over other alternatives that are often more invasive. Some of the many benefits include:

  • Minimal scarring
  • Smaller incisions
  • Shorter hospital stays
  • Faster recovery time
  • Lower rate of pain and complications
