Laparotomy is a surgical procedure that helps treat gynecological conditions including - ectopic pregnancy and simple ovarian cysts. In an ectopic pregnancy, the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus. Laparotomy helps remove these fertilized eggs, repairing damaged gynecological structures.
Similarly, fluid-filled sacs namely cysts can develop in ovaries. The size of these cysts varies, but the larger ones need surgical removal. Laparotomy is sometimes used for the removal of these cysts.
In both gynecological conditions, the lower abdomen is excised and the fertilized egg or cysts are removed. This surgical procedure is an effective surgical intervention used for the optimal resolution of ectopic pregnancies and simple ovarian cyst.
The cost of Laparotomy in Pakistan ranges between 90,000-1,20,000/- PKR. This cost varies depending on the patient's medical condition, the complexity of the surgical procedure, and the doctor’s fee.
