The uterus is a woman’s reproductive organ, consisting of the body of the uterus, cervix and fallopian tubes. The body of the uterus, in its turn, consists of a thick muscular layer, as well as the inner lining of the uterus – the endometrium, and the outer layer – the serous membrane.
In each of these parts, pathologies often requiring not only medical treatment, but also surgical intervention can occur.
Reconstructive surgeries are performed for abnormal development of the uterus, for example, with a closed functioning rudimentary uterine horn, uterine septum or vaginal septum.
Each case requires an individual type of operation because the type of anomaly and the degree of its manifestation always differ from the previous one. For example, with a uterine septum, we perform its excision using a hysteroresectoscope, and with a closed functioning rudimentary uterine horn, we perform laparoscopic removal of the horn.
If a woman is planning her pregnancy and she has a cesarean scar defect on the uterus with the formation of a so-called niche, then there is a fairly high probability of uterine rupture along the scar during labor. Sometimes the thickness of the muscle wall at the site of the scar can be about 1 mm. In the case when a woman does not plan a pregnancy, it is not necessary to operate on such a pathology, because it becomes dangerous only in the later stages and during delivery. According to most studies, the thickness of the uterine wall at the site of the scar less than 3 mm is an indication for reconstructive surgery. The operation is performed laparoscopically, the area of scar tissue is excised and the uterine wall is sutured layer by layer.
Surgical interventions to correct pelvic organ prolapse are reconstructive operations to restore the pelvic floor, which can be performed both for medical reasons and subjective feelings of the patient, in order to obtain an aesthetic effect and improve the quality of sexual life.
Our surgeons use all currently existing methods of surgical correction of the pelvic floor. We apply an individualized approach to each case of pelvic prolapse, and choose the best suitable method of surgical treatment for each patient.
In our surgical center, mainly laparoscopic surgical interventions are performed, since this method has a lot of well-known advantages over open access surgery. This applies to both the operation technique itself – better visualization leads to high-quality operations, reduction of tissue trauma, reduction of the risk of bleeding and other complications, facilitation of postoperative recovery (the postoperative period is much easier and faster, our patients return to everyday life 1-2 days after the operation).
For the treatment of particularly complex and non-standard cases, our clinic uses robot-assisted surgery using the Da Vinci robot which allows us to perform even the most complex surgical interventions in gynecology with particular accuracy and minimal risks.
Also, some types of operations are performed using vaginal access (extirpation of the uterus with prolapse, reconstructive operations associated with anomalies in the development of the uterus and vagina).

The uterus is one of the most important organs of the female reproductive system. After all, it is in it that the formation of the embryo and the birth of a new life take place.
