Robotic Myomectomy in Los Angeles
A minimally invasive approach to fibroid removal designed to preserve the uterus and support long-term health and fertility.
For women with symptomatic uterine fibroids who want to preserve the uterus, myomectomy is often the preferred surgical treatment. Robotic myomectomy removes fibroids while leaving the healthy uterus in place, making it an important option for women who want relief from symptoms without sacrificing fertility or uterine preservation.
At GYN Laparoscopic/Robotic Associates LA in Beverly Hills, Dr. Laurence Orbuch performs robotic myomectomy using the da Vinci surgical system. This minimally invasive approach allows many women to avoid the larger incision, increased discomfort, and longer recovery associated with traditional open surgery.
What Is a Myomectomy?
A myomectomy is a procedure that removes uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. Fibroids can develop in different areas of the uterus, and their location often influences both symptoms and surgical planning.
Intramural fibroids grow within the muscular wall of the uterus.
Subserosal fibroids grow on the outer surface of the uterus.
Submucosal fibroids develop beneath the uterine lining and may extend into the uterine cavity.
Pedunculated fibroids are attached by a stalk either inside or outside the uterus.
The da Vinci Robotic Advantage
Robotic surgery has expanded treatment options for many women who previously may have required open surgery.
The da Vinci system is a surgical platform fully controlled by Dr. Orbuch, allowing for precise, controlled movements during surgery.
Enhanced visualization provides a magnified, three-dimensional view of pelvic anatomy.
Greater precision allows for detailed surgical work in delicate areas.
Careful uterine repair supports proper healing and future fertility when appropriate.
Benefits of Robotic Myomectomy
For appropriate candidates, robotic myomectomy may offer:
Smaller incisions
Less post-operative pain
Reduced blood loss
Shorter hospital stay, often same-day or overnight
Faster recovery and return to normal activities
Preserving Fertility
One of the primary reasons women choose myomectomy is to preserve the uterus for future pregnancy. In carefully selected patients, removing fibroids while reconstructing the uterus can improve both symptoms and reproductive outcomes.
Because uterine repair is a critical part of the procedure, surgical experience and technique are essential.
Are You a Candidate?
You may be a candidate for robotic myomectomy if you have symptomatic fibroids, want to preserve your uterus, and are looking for a minimally invasive approach.
A consultation includes a detailed review of your symptoms, imaging, medical history, and future goals to determine the best treatment plan.
