Radio wave excision of the cervix

A loyalty program is available for surgical interventions in the hospital, which makes treatment even more affordable.

Radiofrequency cervical excision is a modern minimally invasive technique for surgical treatment of various cervical pathologies, such as dysplasia and erosion. It is based on the use of high-frequency radio waves, which, acting on certain cells, cause an instant increase in internal temperature and destruction. Thus, an accurate incision and removal of the affected area of ​​​​tissue are performed.

This technique is considered one of the most effective and safe, since:

• it has minimal trauma and a low risk of complications;
• does not cause scarring on the cervix, which is very important for women planning pregnancy;
• is performed under local anesthesia and does not require hospitalization;
• healing is quick, and the patient does not experience severe pain or discomfort.

In the surgery department of Oxford Medical, cervical excision is performed using the Surgitron device, manufactured by the American manufacturer ELLMAN International. Thanks to this, as well as the highly professional work of gynecological surgeons, each patient of our clinic receives high-quality medical care using advanced technologies.

Radiofrequency excision involves the removal of superficial cervical tissues.

It is prescribed for:

• cervical erosion;

• cervical dysplasia;

• cervical polyps and condylomas;

• leukoplakia (thickening and keratinization of the cervical epithelium);

• cervical deformation after childbirth or surgery.

Other conservative and surgical treatment methods are also used for these diseases. In particular, they perform conization of the cervix. This procedure can also be performed using the radio wave method, but involves deeper tissue excision. The gynecologist determines which method will be the most effective and safe for the patient individually, taking into account the diagnosis, medical history and reproductive plans.

Most often, cervical excision is performed at the beginning of the menstrual cycle, from day 5 to 11.

Preliminary diagnostics, which allows confirming the presence of indications and excluding contraindications, may include:

• examination by a gynecologist;
• colposcopy;
• cytological analysis (PAP test);
• analysis of a vaginal smear for microflora;
• ultrasound of the pelvic organs;
• blood and urine tests.

2-3 days before the procedure, it is recommended to refrain from sexual intercourse, not to use tampons and not to douche. If the patient is taking blood-thinning medications, it is recommended to stop taking them for 1-2 weeks.

Radio wave treatment of cervical dysplasia or other pathologies requiring tissue excision is performed in a day hospital setting. The procedure takes about 30-40 minutes, and the patient's stay in the clinic does not exceed 2-3 hours.

Radio wave excision is performed as follows:

1. The patient is placed on a gynecological chair.

2. The doctor installs speculums and uses special instruments to dilate the cervix.

3. Disinfects the mucous membrane and provides local anesthesia.

4. Directs the radio wave electrode to the affected area of ​​the cervix and carefully performs excision (removal of atypical cells). High-frequency radio waves emitted by the device cause an instant increase in temperature inside the cells, as a result of which they are destroyed. In the process, the doctor changes the depth and area of ​​​​radio waves, ensuring the removal of only the affected areas.

5. After the excision, the surgeon conducts a control examination, treats the wound surface and removes the instruments.

To monitor the patient's well-being, it is recommended to stay in the clinic for another 1-2 hours.

In case of cervical erosion or dysplasia, surgery is the main method of treatment. At «Oxford Medical» it is performed using minimally invasive techniques. You can find out about the prices of therapy here.
