vNotes Hysterectomies
You can have a hysterectomy with:
- Less pain
- No scars
- Faster recovery
vNOTES (vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery) is a minimally invasive surgery that eliminates the need for your surgeon to make incisions in your abdomen to perform the surgery. In the vNOTES procedure, your doctor uses specialized instruments inserted through the vagina instead of making incisions in your abdomen. This allows your doctor to gain access to the uterus and/or fallopian tubes and ovaries without any visible scarring.
This new method can also be used to remove ovarian cysts, perform sterilizations including tubal ligation and salpingectomy, and treat pelvic floor prolapse.
Mankato Clinic has OB-GYNs who are specially trained to perform vNOTES procedures. Talk with your Mankato Clinic OB-GYN to see if this procedure is right for you.
