15-Year-Old with Recurrent Pelvic Pain? Think Dermoid Cyst!

A young girl presented with recurrent pelvic pain and was diagnosed with a dermoid cyst—an often misunderstood but common type of ovarian tumor.

Key message: Dermoid cysts are not a contraindication to laparoscopy. With the right training and surgical precision, what once required open surgery (laparotomy) can now be safely and effectively treated through minimally invasive laparoscopy—in as little as 20 minutes.

Why subject young patients to large abdominal incisions and prolonged recovery times when a skilled laparoscopic approach can offer a faster, less traumatic alternative?

This is about more than just technology—it’s about technique, experience, and a commitment to advancing minimally invasive gynecology. Let’s continue advocating for safer, less invasive surgical options for our patients.

Laparoscopic Burch Colposuspension: A Highly Effective Solution for Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI)

Struggling with Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI)? There’s a Lasting Solution.

Do you or someone you know experience urine leakage when coughing, laughing, sneezing, or exercising? You may be dealing with Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI)—a common but often distressing condition for many women.

Fortunately, there’s a proven surgical solution that offers long-term relief:

Laparoscopic Burch Colposuspension

Why Choose Laparoscopic Burch Colposuspension?

✅ Minimally Invasive
This laparoscopic approach requires only small incisions, resulting in less pain, quicker recovery, and shorter hospital stays compared to traditional open surgery.

✅ High Surgical Precision
Laparoscopy offers magnified, detailed visualization of the pelvic anatomy—enabling accurate suturing and a reduced risk of complications.

✅ Excellent Outcomes
Clinical studies have shown:

66.7% of patients report “greatly improved” symptoms at 24 months
62.8% achieve complete dryness within 2 years
94.9%+ experience no severe symptoms after surgery

✅ Mesh-Free and Safe
Unlike synthetic sling procedures, the Burch method is performed with sutures only—offering a mesh-free alternative and avoiding mesh-related risks.

Symptom Relief & Patient Satisfaction

? Significant reduction in incontinence:
Only 4.8% report severe symptoms at 6 months post-op

? Improved quality of life, confirmed by validated patient-reported outcome measures (UDI-6, PGI-I)

? Low complication rates with minimal risk of:

Voiding dysfunction
New or worsening urinary urgency

Is This Procedure Right for You?

The laparoscopic Burch procedure may be ideal if you:

Have genuine stress urinary incontinence
Want a durable, non-mesh solution
Are undergoing other pelvic surgeries (e.g., for prolapse) and prefer a combined approach

Recovery at a Glance

? Hospital Stay: 2–3 days
?‍♀️ Return to daily activities: 1–2 weeks
? Long-term success: Durable results confirmed in follow-up studies beyond 5 years

Laparoscopic Sacrocolpopexy: The Expert Solution for Vault Prolapse

Did You Know?

Up to 15% of patients who undergo a hysterectomy may later develop vault prolapse—a condition where the top of the vaginal canal descends post-surgery.
Unfortunately, many of these cases are misdiagnosed or undertreated, often because the patient already had uterine prolapse before the hysterectomy.

But there’s good news:
Laparoscopic Sacrocolpopexy offers a minimally invasive, durable, and highly effective solution! ?
Why Choose Laparoscopic Sacrocolpopexy?

✅ Precision – The laparoscopic approach allows for detailed dissection and accurate mesh placement.
✅ Faster Recovery – Smaller incisions result in less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, and a quicker return to normal life.
✅ Long-Lasting Results – When performed with proper technique, this procedure offers low recurrence rates and excellent long-term outcomes.
