Whic surgery is betr laprascopic or open abdominal myectomy to remove a mass fibroid 10 cm...i want to have kids do not have children.had 1mc in april?

Either: 10cm is rather large and more difficult to remove with laparoscopic methods rather than open. However, depending on the surgeon they may feel that they can accomplish this without difficulty and the recovery from laparoscopic vs. open is much less painful and much quicker.
