Vaginal neoplasm removal (cysts, polyps, fibroids)
Delicate and Safe Treatment of Vaginal Neoplasms
The appearance of any lumps, growths, or nodules in the vaginal area is a reason for immediate consultation with a gynecologist. Even if the neoplasm is benign and painless, over time it can grow, become traumatized, cause bleeding, and significantly worsen the quality of intimate life.
At St. Luke’s Clinic, we perform fast, safe, and completely painless removal of vaginal neoplasms using modern surgical and radio wave techniques. We care about your comfort and guarantee a high aesthetic result without coarse scars.
What neoplasms do we remove?
Our gynecological surgeons have extensive experience in diagnosing and treating various types of vaginal mucosal pathologies:
- Vaginal cysts (incl. Gartner’s duct cysts): cavity formations filled with fluid. They do not degenerate into cancer but can become purulent or interfere with sexual intercourse.
- Polyps: benign growths of the mucous membrane that often bleed with the slightest trauma.
- Genital warts and papillomas: viral formations (caused by HPV) that can rapidly grow and be transmitted to a partner.
- Fibroids and lipomas: dense benign tumors of connective or fatty tissue that can reach significant sizes.
When should you see a doctor?
Neoplasms are subject to mandatory removal if you notice the following symptoms:
- Sensation of a “foreign body” or pressure in the vagina.
- Discomfort, pain, or bloody discharge during and after sexual intercourse.
- Persistent atypical discharge, itching, or burning.
- You have independently felt a lump or nodule during hygiene procedures.
How is the procedure performed at St. Luke’s Clinic?
The removal method is chosen individually depending on the type, size, and location of the neoplasm.
1. Minimally invasive methods (radio wave surgery or laser):
Ideal for removing polyps, warts, and small cysts. The radio wave “cuts” the formation non-contact, instantly sealing blood vessels (bloodlessly). The procedure takes 15–20 minutes and leaves no scars.
2. Surgical excision:
Used for removing large cysts or fibroids that are located deep in the tissues. The surgeon carefully enucleates the formation along with the capsule (to prevent recurrence) and applies the finest cosmetic sutures with self-dissolving threads.
Advantages and safety of treatment
- Absolutely painless: manipulations are performed under reliable local anesthesia or in a state of short medical sleep (intravenous anesthesia). You will not feel any discomfort.
- Mandatory histology: all removed tissues are sent to the laboratory for histological examination. This is the “gold standard” of medicine, which 100% excludes the presence of malignant cells and gives the patient peace of mind.
- Quick recovery: this is “day surgery”. After a short rest in a comfortable ward, you can return home. Complete healing of the mucous membrane takes 2 to 4 weeks (during this period, sexual abstinence and refraining from visiting swimming pools/saunas are recommended).
