What is Fibroid Removal?

Myomectomy, or uterine fibroid removal, is a surgical procedure performed to eliminate non-cancerous growths (fibroids) from the uterus while preserving fertility and uterine integrity. Fibroids can cause heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, or difficulty conceiving.

At Genesis Athens, the procedure is usually performed through minimally invasive laparoscopic or hysteroscopic techniques, depending on the size and location of the fibroids. The goal is to relieve symptoms, improve quality of life, and restore normal reproductive function.

In some cases, fibroids coexist with other conditions such as endometriosis, requiring a coordinated therapeutic plan. Imaging investigations such as transvaginal ultrasound help determine the most appropriate surgical approach before the procedure.

Following international medical standards, Genesis Athens adheres to the recommendations of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) regarding the management of uterine fibroids.

Fibroid Removal
Your fertility specialist will assess your condition, review imaging and previous treatments, and determine whether robotic surgery is the best option for you.
Our surgical team will provide detailed information about the procedure, benefits, and risks. You will also complete all necessary medical and consent forms.
The surgery is performed using a robotic system controlled by the surgeon from a console. Small incisions are made, and robotic arms perform precise movements guided by 3D imaging.
Patients usually stay in the clinic for one night. Recovery is faster than with open surgery, with less pain and reduced risk of complications.
Your doctor will review the surgical outcome with you and plan the next steps in your fertility care, whether that includes natural conception or assisted reproduction.
