Radio wave coagulation of the cervix

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

Radio wave coagulation of the cervix is ​​a minimally invasive technique that allows for the contactless removal of affected areas of the mucous membrane, as well as papillomas or condylomas. It practically eliminates damage to healthy tissues and the formation of scars, so it can be used even in young women who have not given birth.

Coagulation occurs due to the point effect on the altered cells of high-frequency radio waves. They cause an instant increase in temperature inside the cells, which leads to dehydration and destruction. There is no bleeding during the procedure, and the risk of infection and scarring of tissues is minimized.

In Oxford Medical, radio wave treatment of the cervix is ​​performed using the Surgitron device, an American manufacturer, ELLMAN International. It has 4 operating modes and allows you to select settings for each patient, taking into account her individual characteristics. The procedure is performed by gynecological surgeons with many years of experience.

Involving a team of highly qualified doctors and equipping the clinics with expert-class equipment allows us to provide medical care in accordance with the highest quality standards.

Make an appointment with a gynecologist and undergo effective treatment using advanced minimally invasive techniques.

Radio wave coagulation can be prescribed for:

• cervical erosion;

• cervical dysplasia;

• leukoplakia;

• chronic cervicitis;

• cervical polyps and condylomas.

During the procedure, atypical cells or neoplasms are removed. Polyps and condylomas can cause bleeding and the development of pain. Removal using the radio wave method is the most gentle.

In chronic cervicitis - inflammation of the cervix that does not respond to conservative treatment, radio wave coagulation is performed to remove the inflamed areas. After healing, normal tissues are restored and the patient's condition improves.

As part of the preparation directly before the operation, it is also necessary to conduct:

• general blood and urine tests;
• blood tests for common infections;
• bacteriological culture;
• electrocardiography (in case of general anesthesia).

2-3 days before the operation, the patient is recommended to exclude sexual intercourse, douching, use of tampons, vaginal suppositories and other means.

1-2 weeks before the operation, it is advised to cancel the intake of drugs that may affect blood clotting.

If general anesthesia is planned, it is advised to switch to a light diet 1-2 days before, and to come to the clinic on an empty stomach on the day of the operation.

Proper preparation for radio wave coagulation of the cervix is ​​one of the key conditions for a successful procedure and quick recovery. Following all the doctor's recommendations helps to minimize risks and achieve the best treatment results.

Radiofrequency ablation of the cervix is ​​a minimally invasive procedure that does not require hospitalization. It takes about 30 minutes, and the entire stay in the clinic is no more than 2-3 hours.

Local anesthesia is most often used for pain relief. The patient remains conscious, but does not feel pain or discomfort.

The main stages of radio wave coagulation:

1. The patient is placed on a gynecological chair.

2. The doctor installs speculum and dilates the cervix.

3. Treats the mucous membrane with an antiseptic.

4. Provides local anesthesia.

5. Brings a thin radio wave electrode to the affected area of ​​the cervix. The device generates high-frequency radio waves that heat and vaporize pathological tissues. The doctor controls the depth and area of ​​exposure to remove only the affected areas, preserving healthy tissues.

6. After the procedure is completed, the condition of the cervix is ​​assessed and checked to see if all pathological areas have been removed.

The advantages of radio wave coagulation are:

• minimal damage to healthy tissues;

• no bleeding due to simultaneous coagulation of vessels;

• reduced risk of infection compared to surgical methods;

• minimized risk of scar formation;

• can be used in nulliparous women due to the absence of negative effects on fertility;

• easy postoperative period.

For successful tissue healing, patients are recommended to:

• abstain from sexual intercourse for 4-6 weeks;
• limit physical activity, avoid lifting weights;
• take a shower instead of a bath;
• do not visit saunas, do not swim in pools and open springs;
• do not use tampons;
• take medications prescribed by a doctor and come for post-operative examinations in a timely manner.

In case of severe and prolonged pain, heavy bleeding, discharge with a sharp unpleasant odor, or fever, you should consult a doctor.

At «Oxford Medical», cervical coagulation is performed using new expert-class equipment - the Surgitron device, manufactured by the American manufacturer ELLMAN International. It emits high-frequency radio waves (3.8-4 MHz). They provide instant heating and evaporation of fluid inside the cells, but do not affect the surrounding tissues and do not cause a thermal burn (the electrode that conducts radio waves does not heat up).

The cost of minimally invasive surgery may vary depending on the diagnosis and complexity of the disease. You can find out the prices of surgical treatment at «Oxford Medical Kyiv» here. A gynecologist will advise you more precisely on this issue after reviewing your medical history and examination results.
