Laparoscopy, Diagnostic and Operative
This outpatient procedure has almost completely replaced large abdominal incisions. Most reproductive surgeries can be performed using this technique, requiring minimal recovery time. This procedure is commonly used to treat pelvic endometriosis, scar tissue, ovarian cysts, fibroid tumors, etc. Dr. Greenberg is also CO2 laser certified.
Hysteroscopy, Diagnostic and Operative
This technique is used to visualize the inside of the uterus and does not require an incision. A scope is passed through the cervix into the uterus and either a gas or fluid is used to expand the cavity. Various procedures may then be performed through hysteroscopy. For example:
| |
- Removal of polyps.
- Repair of uterine septum and congenital
anomalies of uterus.
- Removal of fibroids.
- Removal of intrauterine adhesions and scars.
- Biopsies.

Myomectomy
This refers to removal of fibroid tumors from the uterus without removing the uterus. This can be accomplished through a small incision, through a laparoscope or hysteroscope, depending on the size, numbers and location of the fibroids.
Reversal of Tubal Sterilization (Tubal Reversal)
Women who have had their tubes tied sometimes decide that they want to conceive. Before proceeding with the reversal, the doctor will discuss what options the patient has available. The tubal reversal is performed in the operating room through a small incision with the help of a microscope.
