At Genesis IVF Fertility Hospital in Salem, we believe that surgical precision and patient comfort should go hand in hand. That’s why we specialize in Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery (MIGS) — a modern approach that transforms how we treat complex gynecological conditions with less pain, faster recovery, and better outcomes.
What Is Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery?
Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery refers to a set of advanced surgical techniques that use small incisions or natural body openings to perform procedures with the help of specialized instruments and high-definition cameras. Unlike traditional open surgery, MIGS minimizes trauma to the body while maximizing surgical accuracy.
Common Conditions Treated with MIGS
- Uterine fibroids
- Endometriosis
- Ovarian cysts
- Pelvic adhesions
- Abnormal uterine bleeding
- Ectopic pregnancy
- Infertility-related tubal issues
- Early-stage gynecologic cancers
Types of Minimally Invasive Procedures
- Laparoscopy A small camera (laparoscope) is inserted through a tiny incision in the abdomen to visualize and treat internal organs.
- Hysteroscopy A thin scope is inserted through the cervix to examine and treat conditions inside the uterus without any abdominal cuts.
- Robotic-Assisted Surgery Surgeons use robotic arms for enhanced precision, especially in complex cases like deep endometriosis or fertility-sparing procedures.
- Vaginal Surgery Performed through the vaginal canal, this approach avoids external incisions altogether.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery
- ✅ Smaller incisions and minimal scarring
- ✅ Reduced postoperative pain
- ✅ Shorter hospital stays
- ✅ Faster return to daily activities
- ✅ Lower risk of infection
