Adnexa Removal Surgery Cost and Procedure Introduction
Adnexa removal surgery is usually a minimally invasive procedure performed through tiny incisions, using an instrument (laparoscope) with a camera attached. During this procedure, adnexal masses are removed. Adnexa removal surgeries are performed in a hospital or outpatient surgical facility by a general surgeon or gynecologist. Laparoscopic surgery is often associated with a lower rate of complications, a shorter hospital stay, and better cosmetic results than the open procedure.
Patient Preparation for Adnexa Removal Surgery
A physical examination will be performed along with blood or other diagnostic tests, such as a CT scan ultrasound or electrocardiogram. It is particularly important to inform the physician of all medications or vitamins taken regularly or if you are pregnant (or think you might be pregnant). Also, tell your doctor if you have heart, lung or other medical conditions that may need special attention, and, finally, if you have a history of bleeding disorders or if you are taking any anticoagulant (blood-thinning) medications, aspirin, or other medications that affect blood clotting. You will be given instructions in advance that will outline what you should and should not do in preparation for the surgery; be sure to read and follow those instructions. You will be asked to fast for eight hours before the procedure, generally after midnight. Arrangements may need to be made for transportation after the surgery is complete. If you are given a prescription for pain medication, have it filled prior to surgery.
What to Expect During and After Adnexa Removal Surgery
The surgery itself usually takes about an hour, but the preparation and recovery time may add several hours. Most patients go home the same day as the surgery if there are no major problems. After checking in to the surgical facility and going back to the preop room, an intravenous line is inserted into the arm to administer a sedative and a painkiller. This procedure is done while you are under general anesthesia (unconscious and pain-free). Your heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate and oxygen level will be monitored during the procedure. The surgeon makes a number of small incisions in the abdomen. Using the light and camera on the laparoscope, the surgeon will locate the adnexal mass to be removed. After removing the mass, damage will be repaired with sutures. Depending on the nature of the adnexal mass or masses and the conversation you’ve had with your doctor before surgery, the surgeon may need to remove reproductive organs or look for other issues throughout the abdomen. Finally, the incisions are closed using stiches or surgical tape.
After surgery, you will be taken to the recovery room for observation. Once your blood pressure, pulse, and breathing are stable and you are alert, you will most often be discharged to your home. Before being discharged, you will be given instructions about care for your incisions, limits on activities and what you should do to aid your recovery. If you notice any of the following, call the number the hospital gave you: Fever, excessive sweating, difficulty urinating, redness, bleeding or worsening pain.
