Gynecology

Our highly trained gynecological surgeons at Durango Outpatient Surgery Center provide women with innovative options when gynecological surgery is necessary.

Our facility offers less invasive surgical options for some surgical procedures that enable most women to return to daily activities in less time and with less discomfort than with traditional surgery.

Gynecology is a branch of medicine in which the physician specializes in the functions and diseases specific to females, especially those affecting the reproductive system. Gynecologists provide preventative care, diagnose any disorders related to the female productive system, and create a treatment plan.

Here are the most common gynecological procedures performed at Durango Outpatient Surgery Center:

• Hysteroscopy: Hysteroscopy can be used to diagnose and treat numerous uterine conditions, including uterine fibroids, polyps, adhesions, and abnormal bleeding. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and usually takes less than 30 minutes. Recovery is typically quick, and most patients are able to return home the same day.
• Laparoscopy: Laparoscopy can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including endometriosis, fibroids, and ovarian cysts. Laparoscopy can also be used to diagnose conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease and ectopic pregnancy.
• LEEP: LEEP, or loop electrosurgical excision procedure, is a type of outpatient surgery that is used to treat abnormal tissue growths.
• Colposcopy: Colposcopy can be used to diagnose and treat problems such as cervical cancer, endometriosis, and pelvic inflammatory disease.
• D&C: D&C is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the lining of the uterus. This can be done for a variety of reasons, including the diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as abnormal bleeding, fibroids, or cancer.
• Tubal Ligation: Tubal ligation is a surgical procedure that involves the detachment of the fallopian tubes. This method is a permanent form of birth control for women. The surgery is performed through small incisions in the abdomen. It is a safe and effective way to prevent pregnancy.
