Hysterectomy

Surgical procedure for removing the uterus

About hysterectomy

Hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus, and in some cases, other adjacent structures such as the ovaries and fallopian tubes. This operation can be performed to treat a variety of gynecological conditions that do not respond to conservative treatments.

At Topmed Medical Center Târgu Mureș, hysterectomy is performed by an experienced team of surgeons using modern techniques to ensure effective treatment and rapid recovery.

When is hysterectomy recommended?

Uterine fibroids

Benign tumors that can cause pain, heavy bleeding, or infertility.

Severe endometriosis

Abnormal growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, causing chronic pain and infertility.

Gynecological cancers

Hysterectomy may be necessary in cases of uterine, cervical, or ovarian cancer.

Uterine prolapse

When the uterus descends into the vagina due to weakened pelvic muscles.

Abnormal uterine bleeding

Bleeding that cannot be controlled through other treatment methods.
