Procedure preparations

  • Endoscopy is a procedure that’s used to closely examine the internal structure of the body by inserting a tube that contains a light and a special camera to show the desired area on the screen. The endoscopic tube is inserted through one of the body openings (such as the nose, mouth, vagina, and anus) or through a small incision in the skin, depending on the desired area or organ.
  • Endoscopy is used to see a specific organ or area inside the body in order to diagnose a condition or perform surgery.
  • Endoscopic surgery is called minimally invasive surgery, which means that it doesn’t cause a large surgical incision as in the traditional surgeries. Endoscopic surgery is done by making several small incisions in the skin to insert the camera tube and the surgery tools through them.
  • Endoscopic surgeries have become highly recommended, and they’re used in a lot of surgeries when possible. Endoscopic surgeries are precise, cause fewer anesthetic complications, the patient can often return home on the same day after performing them, and full recovery after undergoing them is faster.

Procedure preparations

  • Preparations depend on the type of the endoscopy or the endoscopic surgery, and generally, the doctor orders some tests to check on the patient’s health in general.

Procedure complications

  • In endoscopies, there aren’t usually any complications, yet the patient might feel discomfort and be groggy due to the sedation, which lasts for one day only in most cases.
  • In endoscopic surgeries, the complications differ depending on the surgery type.

Procedure instructions

  • In endoscopy, it’s preferable that you rest for the day of the endoscopy and you can return to your normal life the next day.
  • In endoscopic surgeries, you must follow the instructions of the doctor to recover. In general, you can return to work within a few days in many cases, but returning to your normal life takes more than that, depending on the surgery type.

Liposuction
Liposuction is a type of body contouring, and it aims to remove fat from specific parts of the body, such as the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, arms, back, chest, neck, and face. Not all people can undergo liposuction, whereas there are some conditions for a person to be considered eligible, and they include: the person must be an adult with an overweight no more than 30% above the ideal weight (the BMI shouldn’t be above 25), the skin must be elastic with a good muscle tone, the overall health must be good, the fats didn’t go with a healthy diet and exercising, and the person mustn’t be a smoker. There are several types of liposuction, including tumescent liposuction or suction-assisted liposuction, ultrasound-assisted liposuction, laser-assisted liposuction, and other modern methods. In suction-assisted liposuction, the anesthesia might be general or local, depending on the case, and then the doctor makes incisions to insert an instrument called a cannula to break up the fat, followed by a suction pipe to remove it. The liposuction procedure could take several hours, depending on the amount of fat that is being removed. The patient can go home on the same day, but in some cases, the patient might stay at the hospital for a day or more.

In the surgery, the patient is put under general anesthesia, then the surgeon makes the incisions to transfer the implants, after that, they close the incisions. The breast augmentation procedure might take 1-2 hours, depending on the case, and the patient can return home on the same day.

Myomectomy
Uterine fibroids are benign growths in the uterus that are made up of connective tissues and muscle cells, and there isn’t a clear reason for them. There might be one or multiple ones, and they differ in size. These fibroids cause numerous symptoms, such as heavy bleeding during periods, longer and more frequent menstrual bleedings, pain, a growing stomach area, urination problems, and constipation. Uterine fibroids don’t affect pregnancy most often, but when there is an impact or when the symptoms worsen, this condition must be managed. In cases where medications and other treatments don’t work, uterine fibroids are removed. Removing the fibroids could be done laparoscopically by making small incisions in the abdomen and inserting the camera and specific tools through them, or surgically by making an abdomen incision. Usually, the patient is put under general anesthesia. The procedure usually takes 2-3 hours depending on the procedure type, the size of the fibroids, and their number, and the patient might need to stay in the hospital for one or two days if the procedure was through an abdominal incision.
