A member asked:
I am scheduled for an abdominal hysterectomy november 26th for congested pelvic syndrome. should iget another opinion for a less invasive method?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I would say: yes. But I am biased because I am an advanced minimally invasive surgeon. Having 3 pencil eraser size incisions vs a larger skin incision allows for less pain and a quicker recovery and shorter hospital stay. If you are asking the question, then I think you already know the answer. Good Luck.
