Adnexal surgery at Nuffield Health at St Bartholomew's Hospital

Is adnexal surgery right for me?

Reasons for adnexal surgery vary:

• Removal of ovaries
• Removal of fallopian tubes
• Unblocking of fallopian tubes
• Adhesion removal from fallopian tubes or ovaries
• Removal of ovarian cysts
• Removal of cancerous tumours

What happens during adnexal surgery?

Most adnexal surgery can be done laparoscopically. The total time it takes to perform your surgery will depend on what area is being addressed. Adnexal surgery is usually performed under general anaesthetic. 

Your surgeon will make several small incisions (cuts) in your abdomen. They will insert the laparoscope in one incision. Surgical instruments will be inserted in the other incisions to repair or remove areas needing treatment. 

Recovery from adnexal surgery

Your length of hospital stay will depend on the level of surgery performed and your recovery.

Our team of specialist physiotherapists will provide expert treatment, rehabilitation and advice during your hospital stay, and if appropriate follow-up as an outpatient to support your full recovery.
