LAVH & NDVH

LAVH & NAVH SURGERY - MEHER HOSPITAL

Experience the advantages of Less-Access Vaginal Hysterectomy (LAVH) and Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH), innovative surgical approaches for the removal of the uterus. Our skilled team of gynaecologists performs these procedures with precision, offering faster recovery, reduced complications and improved patient satisfaction.

Meher Hospital is offering people two low-risk surgeries: Less-Access Vaginal Hysterectomy (LAVH) and Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH). LAVH is a technique that combines laparoscopic and vaginal procedures. An instrument called a laparoscope is placed into the tiny cuts which offer a good view of the area of surgery and enables the exact removal of the uterus through the vaginal canal. On the other hand, is a vaginal method that requires no uterine descent. Its goal is to preserve ligamentous support to the pubic organs. We have an expert team of surgeons for these new procedures who assures the optimal results in the shorter recovery periods for our hyster patients.

What is LAVH (Laparoscopic Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy)?

LAVH combines laparoscopic (keyhole) and vaginal surgical techniques to remove the uterus. The laparoscope is used to detach the uterus from surrounding structures under camera guidance, after which the uterus is removed through the vaginal canal. This approach significantly reduces the size of incisions, blood loss, and recovery time compared to open abdominal hysterectomy.

What is NDVH (Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy)?

NDVH is a purely vaginal approach to hysterectomy performed without the need for abdominal incisions or laparoscopic assistance. It is particularly suitable for patients with a non-prolapsed uterus, including those with moderate-sized fibroids or benign uterine conditions. NDVH has been shown to offer excellent outcomes with rapid recovery.

Conditions for Which These Procedures May Be Recommended

Uterine Fibroids: Large or symptomatic fibroids causing heavy bleeding, pressure, or pain, where fertility preservation is not required.

Endometriosis: Severe, treatment-resistant endometriosis affecting quality of life.

Adenomyosis: Condition where the uterine lining grows into the muscular wall, causing heavy and painful periods.

Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Persistent, uncontrolled bleeding unresponsive to medical management.

Uterine Prolapse: Weakening of the pelvic floor causing the uterus to descend into or beyond the vaginal canal.

Gynaecological Cancers: Early-stage cancers where surgical removal of the uterus is indicated.
