Laparotomic vs. laparoscopic myomectomy: surgical outcomes from a tertiary center retrospective study
Laparoscopic myomectomy provides considerable advantages over laparotomic myomectomy, including reduced hospital stay and lower postoperative analgesic requirements. While laparotomy remains preferable for larger myomas, laparoscopic approaches yield comparable outcomes in terms of hemoglobin levels and complication rates. With appropriate patient selection, laparoscopic myomectomy is a preferred surgical method due to its positive impact on patient recovery, comfort and overall surgical efficacy.
