Hysteroscopic resection of retained products of conception

Hysteroscopic resection of retained products of conception (RPOC) is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove placental tissue or fetal remnants that remain in the uterus after a miscarriage, abortion, or delivery. Retained products can cause symptoms like abnormal bleeding, pain, or infection, and they may hinder future fertility. At Dr. Abdul Basith’s clinic, this procedure is performed with precision to ensure the complete removal of RPOC, restoring uterine health and function.

During the procedure, a hysteroscope (a thin, lighted tube with a camera) is inserted through the cervix to visualise the uterine cavity. Specialised surgical instruments are then used to carefully remove any retained tissue. Hysteroscopic resection is a preferred method due to its accuracy, minimal discomfort, and short recovery time compared to traditional procedures like dilation and curettage (D&C).

Dr. Abdul Basith ensures that patients undergoing this procedure are given thorough care before, during, and after surgery. Diagnostic imaging such as ultrasound or MRI is often used to confirm the presence of retained products, and the procedure is performed under sedation or general anaesthesia to ensure comfort.

The advantages of hysteroscopic resection include a lower risk of complications, such as uterine scarring, and quicker recovery. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days. By offering this advanced surgical option, Dr. Abdul Basith helps women recover quickly and effectively from RPOC, ensuring their future reproductive health is preserved.
