Myomectomy, sometimes also called fibroidectomy, refers to the surgical removal of uterine leiomyomas, also known as fibroids. In contrast to a hysterectomy, the uterus remains preserved and the woman retains her reproductive potential. Myomectomy, when performed by an expert, is a safe and effective alternative to hysterectomy. This operation can usually be accomplished with minimal blood loss. Laparoscopic myomectomy can take two to four hours or sometimes more than that based on the number of fibroids and their size. You can go home after two days of the surgery, depending on how you feel after the procedure.
