Absolutely: Fibroids can be removed via laparoscopically, with robotic-assist, or through an open incision. However, this is a skill that only the top gyne laparoscopists possess. Do your research before signing up for this procedure.

Absolutely!: Robotic-assisted or laparoscopic surgery are optimal ways to remove most symptomatic fibroids. In experienced hands the surgery is almost as fast as open surgery with far less pain, recovery time and risk for bleeding, fever, or infection. It is a win- win for the patient and doctor in many ways.

Yes: I remove fibroids all the time through robotic laparoscopy. That is much better for removing the fibroids that traditional laparoscopy. In fact that is really becoming the standard of care for most fibroid surgeries now.

Yes.: Laparoscopic myomectomy requires a certain skill set with the laparoscope. It could be very rewarding when done appropriately and a lot less invasive then the traditional open approach.

Yes: Well trained laparoscopic surgeons will be able to perform myomectomies with minimally invasive techniques. Another instrument called a morcelator would be used to remove the fibroid in small pieces through a fairly small 14 mm incision. Brignonimd.Com.
