Some issues Dr. Angela Faye Falany, MD can help you with:

Bladder Sling Surgery

If the tube where urine flows out of the body, or urethra, does not close properly and straining causes it to shift out of place, bladder sling surgery may be recommended. In this procedure, the surgeon uses synthetic mesh, a patient's own tissue, or donor tissue to create a sling under the area where the bladder meets the urethra, called the bladder neck. The sling prevents leakage by holding the bladder in place and keeping the urethra closed, especially when coughing or sneezing.

For men, the incision is placed between the base of the scrotum and anus. The incision can be made on the abdomen or in the vagina for women. If a surgeon uses a patient's own tissue to form the sling, she will most likely perform the procedure through the abdominal incision. This approach requires a hospital stay of a few days and down time of a few weeks. Surgery to insert synthetic slings is typically done vaginally. It is performed at an outpatient facility, and most normal activities can be resumed within seven to ten days.

Although recovery is shorter with synthetic slings than with slings made from the patient's own tissue, synthetic slings are associated with a complication known as mesh erosion. When synthetic mesh erodes, it pushes through the vaginal wall and sometimes becomes exposed, causing long-term pain and infections. If this complication occurs, the patient may need to have another surgery to remove the mesh.

Hysteroscopy

A hysteroscopy is a diagnostic procedure performed to examine the inside of the uterus. A thin tube with a camera and light at the end, called a hysteroscope, is inserted through the vagina. It allows the physician to view the cervix and uterine walls. Sometimes, gas or liquid is used to expand the uterus and allow a better view. If necessary, tiny instruments can also be passed through the tube and used for certain procedures, such as taking a biopsy or removing a polyp.

Hysteroscopy is often done to figure out the cause of abnormal menstrual bleeding. However, it can also be used to:

  • Identify the cause of recurrent miscarriage
  • Remove polyps or fibroids, non-cancerous growths in the uterus
  • Remove adhesions, scar tissue within the uterus
  • Identify uterine septums, a wall of tissue dividing the uterus
  • Perform ablation, the removal of excess uterine lining

If surgery is necessary, hysteroscopy is often used along with laparoscopy, a kind of surgery performed through small incisions in the abdomen. Tiny tools are passed through the incisions, and the hysteroscope guides the doctors while surgery is performed.

Laparoscopic Surgery

Laparoscopic surgery is a kind of minimally invasive surgery using a thin, narrow tube called a laparoscope. Usually performed on the abdomen or the pelvic region, the surgeon makes a few very small incisions instead of one large one.

During the procedure, the surgeon inserts the laparoscope, which contains a light and camera that allows the surgeon to see what is happening inside the body. Then tiny tools are placed through the small openings and used to perform the surgery.

The most common laparoscopic surgery is gallbladder removal, but laparoscopic surgery may also be used for the removal of a kidney or appendix, to treat certain cysts and tumors, for bariatric surgery, for some GERD treatments, or for hernia repairs, among others.

Because laparoscopic surgery only uses a few tiny incisions, the scars are minimal and recovery is easier than with open surgery.
