What is the MyoSure Manual?
The MyoSure Manual is a minimally invasive hysteroscopic device used to remove uterine tissue, such as fibroids and polyps. It is a newer addition to the MyoSure family of devices, and it is designed to be easier to use and more affordable than previous MyoSure devices.
The MyoSure Manual uses a rotating wire loop to cut through uterine tissue. The loop is controlled by a handle that the surgeon squeezes. The device also has a built-in vacuum that removes the cut tissue from the uterus.
The MyoSure Manual can be used to remove a variety of uterine tissues, including:
- Submucous myomas (fibroids that grow into the uterine cavity)
- Endometrial polyps
- Retained products of conception (tissue that remains in the uterus after a miscarriage or abortion)
The MyoSure Manual is a safe and effective procedure. It is typically performed in an office setting under local anesthesia. The procedure usually takes about 15-30 minutes to complete.
Benefits of the MyoSure Manual
The MyoSure Manual offers a number of benefits over other hysteroscopic devices, including:
- It is easier to use and more affordable.
- It is less likely to cause bleeding and other complications.
- It can be used to remove a wider range of uterine tissues.
- It can be used in a variety of clinical settings, including office settings.
What to expect during and after the MyoSure Manual procedure
Before the procedure, you will be given a local anesthetic to numb the cervix. The doctor will then insert a speculum into the vagina to hold the vagina open. A hysteroscope will then be inserted through the cervix into the uterus. The hysteroscope is a thin, flexible tube with a camera at the end. It allows the doctor to see the inside of the uterus.
The doctor will then insert the MyoSure Manual device through the hysteroscope. The doctor will use the device to cut through the uterine tissue. The cut tissue will be removed from the uterus by the built-in vacuum.
Once the procedure is complete, the doctor will remove the hysteroscope and speculum. You may experience some mild cramping and bleeding after the procedure. However, most women are able to return to their normal activities within a day or two.
If you have any questions or concerns about the MyoSure Manual procedure, please talk to your doctor.
