What Is Urogynecology?
Urogynecology refers to disorders and treatments affecting the pelvic floor, including the vagina, uterus, bladder, rectum, and all the related muscles and tissues. Some of the more common urogynecological disorders include urinary or fecal incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, urethral diverticulum, and overactive bladder, all of which can negatively impact a person's comfort, confidence, and quality of life. At Pennsylvania Surgery and Laser Center, our team specializes in treating complicated urogynecological issues using our facility's suite of advanced surgical technologies. If you're living with any of these conditions, we invite you to take control of your life and health with help from our Philadelphia, PA surgeons.
How Does Urogynecology Surgery Work?
The board-certified urogynecologists at Pennsylvania Surgery and Laser Center perform several types of pelvic floor surgeries. A few of the more common approaches we use include:
- Vaginal surgery: This minimally invasive procedure begins with a small incision in the vaginal wall. We use this approach to manually correct pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence.
- Laparoscopic surgery: During laparoscopic surgery, our urogynecologists make a keyhole incision in the abdomen and gently insert a tiny camera (laparoscope) through the opening. This camera enables our team to perform pelvic surgery without having to make a large cut, resulting in fewer scars, less risk of complications, and a smoother recovery.
- Robotic surgery: This approach also involves a keyhole incision in the abdomen. Unlike laparoscopic surgery, robotic surgery is performed with the assistance of robotic tools, providing an enhanced level of precision compared to conventional surgeries.
What Are the Benefits of Urogynecology Surgery?
The symptoms of pelvic floor damage are more than just painful — they can be a significant source of embarrassment. Urogynecology surgery from our team at Pennsylvania Surgery and Laser Center can help by providing the following benefits:
- Provides comfort and relief from urogynecological disorders
- Laparoscopic approach offers less scarring and greater ease of recovery
