Myoma Treatment in Van

Fibroids are benign tumors that develop from the smooth muscle of the female uterus. Fibroids can be seen in 20-30% of women of reproductive age.

Associate Professor Hanifi Şahin has performed hundreds of myoma surgeries and is one of the most experienced physicians in fibroid surgery in Istanbul. Dr. Şahin, who has performed thousands of myoma surgeries, successfully performs uterine-preserving myoma surgeries and myoma surgeries during cesarean section.

Locations of fibroids in the uterus As seen in the figure, fibroids can settle on the inner wall of the uterus, the muscle of the uterus, the outer wall of the uterus and the cervix. Fibroids located on the inner wall of the uterus can sometimes protrude from the cervix and hang into the vagina. This is called uterine fibroids.

Complaints caused by fibroids

1. bleed
2. pain, menstrual pain
3. Miscarriages, recurrent miscarriages
4. Difficulty having children
5. constipation
6. frequent urination
7. Don’t put pressure on the urinary tract

Surgical methods in the treatment of myoma

1. Closed (laparoscopic) fibroid surgery
2. vaginal fibroid surgery
3. hysteroscopic fibroid surgery
4. Myoma surgery with open technique

Fibroids can be performed laparoscopically (closed surgery), open surgery and vaginally without any incision marks on the body. Thus, we offer many advantages such as less pain, less bleeding, less risk of infection, better cosmetic results, faster recovery period and less hospital stay in these patients. Experience in vaginal and closed surgery technique is very important.

In addition, fibroids located on the inner wall of the uterus, which we call submucous, can be removed by shaving the fibroids located on the inner wall by entering through the cervix with an optical light camera, which we call hysteroscopy.
