Operations for fibroids essentially involve removing just the tumor(s) from the uterus or removing the uterus and tumor together. These operations may be done using the laparoscopic approach or by the conventional open surgery route. Contrary to WHAT some believe most fibroids can be removed entirely by a laparoscopic operation. The success of the procedure depends on the skill of the surgeon, the number of fibroids and the facilities available. Alternately, blood supply to fibroids, may be cut off by blocking supplying blood vessels.
