Welcome to Dr. Seckin's official website! Here, we focus on providing exceptional healthcare services for women, specializing in various obstetric and gynecological procedures. Our dedicated team of doctors, with expertise in hysterectomy procedures, strives to improve women's health and medical outcomes.
Hysterectomy Procedure Types
When it comes to treating certain gynecological conditions, a hysterectomy may be recommended as a viable solution. A hysterectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the uterus, and in some cases, may also include the removal of the cervix, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. It is a significant decision for any woman, and understanding the different types of hysterectomy procedures available is essential.
Total Hysterectomy
A total hysterectomy involves the complete removal of the uterus and cervix. This procedure is typically performed when there is a need to address conditions such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, or certain types of cancer that affect the uterus. After a total hysterectomy, a woman will no longer have menstrual periods.
Partial Hysterectomy
A partial hysterectomy, also known as a subtotal or supracervical hysterectomy, involves the removal of the upper part of the uterus, while leaving the cervix intact. This procedure is usually recommended when the cervix is healthy and does not require removal. It is important to note that partial hysterectomies may still require certain follow-up care to monitor any potential health concerns.
Radical Hysterectomy
A radical hysterectomy involves the removal of the uterus, cervix, and surrounding tissues. This procedure is typically performed to treat certain types of gynecological cancers, such as cervical or uterine cancer. In some cases, the fallopian tubes and ovaries may also be removed to reduce the risk of cancer spreading or recurring.
Choosing the Right Hysterectomy Procedure
As with any medical procedure, selecting the most appropriate hysterectomy procedure depends on various factors, including the patient's medical history, overall health, and the specific gynecological condition being treated.
