Discover What's Possible with Laparoscopy
Many fertility challenges can be caused by conditions affecting the reproductive organs, including endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, blocked fallopian tubes, or pelvic adhesions. At The New York Fertility Center, our laparoscopic procedures provide a minimally invasive approach to diagnosing and treating these conditions while supporting your reproductive goals.
Our experienced specialists use advanced surgical techniques to help preserve fertility whenever possible and create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs.
Hospital Laparoscopy Services
Our minimally invasive gynecologic surgery services, performed at SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University, include advanced laparoscopic procedures designed to diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions affecting the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and other pelvic organs. These procedures may be recommended for patients experiencing pelvic pain, infertility, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, PCOS, tubal conditions, or other gynecologic concerns.
Diagnostic Laparoscopy
A minimally invasive procedure used to evaluate unexplained pelvic pain, infertility, endometriosis, and suspected abnormalities involving the reproductive organs and pelvic area.
Biopsy
Collection of tissue samples from pelvic organs or suspicious areas for further pathological evaluation.
Laparoscopic Hysterectomy
Minimally invasive removal of the uterus using laparoscopic surgical techniques. This procedure may be recommended for certain uterine conditions when hysterectomy is appropriate.
Laparoscopic Supracervical Hysterectomy
Removal of the upper portion of the uterus while preserving the cervix. This minimally invasive approach may be considered for select patients based on their individual medical needs.
Laparoscopic Myomectomy
Surgical removal of uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. For appropriate patients, myomectomy can help address fibroid-related symptoms while maintaining fertility potential.
PCOS Ovarian Drilling
A laparoscopic procedure used in select patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) to help stimulate ovulation when other fertility treatments have not been successful or are not appropriate.
Chromotubation
A procedure performed during laparoscopy to evaluate whether the fallopian tubes are open. It may be used as part of an infertility evaluation to assess tubal patency.
Ovarian Cystectomy
Surgical removal of an ovarian cyst while preserving healthy ovarian tissue whenever possible. Treatment recommendations depend on the type, size, symptoms, and characteristics of the cyst.
Salpingostomy
Creation of an opening in the fallopian tube to treat select tubal conditions while preserving the tube when medically appropriate.
Salpingectomy
Surgical removal of one or both fallopian tubes. It may be performed to treat conditions such as ectopic pregnancy or certain tubal diseases and may also be considered for ovarian cancer risk reduction in appropriate patients.
Salpingo-Oophorectomy
Removal of an ovary together with its attached fallopian tube. This procedure may be recommended for certain ovarian, tubal, or pelvic conditions.
Tubal Ligation
A permanent birth control procedure that prevents pregnancy by cutting, sealing, or blocking the fallopian tubes.
Tubal Reanastomosis
Microsurgical reconnection of previously blocked, cut, or separated fallopian tubes. In carefully selected patients, this procedure may help restore the possibility of natural conception.
Endometriosis Excision or Ablation
Laparoscopic treatment of endometriosis, involving the removal or destruction of endometrial-like tissue growing outside the uterus. Treatment may help address pelvic pain and, in selected cases, fertility-related concerns.
Adhesion Lysis
Surgical removal of pelvic adhesions, or internal scar tissue, which can restrict the movement of pelvic organs and may contribute to pelvic pain or infertility.
Personalized Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Care
Every patient’s condition and treatment goals are unique. Our laparoscopic gynecologic surgery services are tailored to individual needs, with an emphasis on accurate diagnosis, minimally invasive treatment options, preservation of healthy tissue when appropriate, and comprehensive gynecologic care.
If you are experiencing pelvic pain, infertility, abnormal uterine or ovarian conditions, endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, or tubal problems, schedule a consultation to discuss whether laparoscopic surgery may be right for you.
