Endometriosis is a complex gynecological condition that affects millions of women worldwide. With advancements in minimally invasive surgery, 3D laparoscopy has emerged as a revolutionary technique for treating endometriosis. Dr. Hrishikesh Pandit, a renowned laparoscopic gynecologist in Ahmednagar, Maharashtra, and one of India’s foremost experts in endometriosis treatment, answers common questions about how 3D laparoscopy makes a difference.

Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus (endometrium) grows outside the uterus, causing pain, inflammation, and sometimes infertility. While medical management such as hormonal therapy can help alleviate symptoms, surgery is often required to remove endometrial implants and adhesions, especially in moderate to severe cases.
Traditional laparoscopy uses a 2D camera to provide a visual of the surgical area, but it lacks depth perception. 3D laparoscopy, on the other hand, uses a high-definition 3D camera that gives the surgeon a more detailed, realistic view. This enables enhanced depth perception, which is crucial when performing intricate surgeries like endometriosis excision.
The precision offered by 3D laparoscopy allows the surgeon to differentiate between healthy and diseased tissue more clearly, leading to more accurate removal of endometriotic lesions.
Recurrence of endometriosis is a common concern. One reason for recurrence is incomplete removal of endometriotic lesions during surgery. With 2D laparoscopy, the surgeon might miss small or deeply infiltrating lesions due to limited visibility. 3D laparoscopy offers a magnified and more detailed view of the pelvic anatomy, enabling the surgeon to meticulously remove all visible lesions.
By ensuring a more thorough removal of the endometriotic tissue, 3D laparoscopy significantly reduces the chances of recurrence. This is one of the key reasons why it is gaining popularity for the treatment of endometriosis.
The benefits of 3D laparoscopy over traditional methods include:
- Improved Accuracy: The 3D view allows for more precise dissection of tissues, reducing the likelihood of damaging surrounding structures.
- Better Outcome in Severe Cases: For cases with deep infiltrating endometriosis, which can involve organs like the bladder or bowel, 3D laparoscopy provides the clarity needed to manage these complex conditions without complications.
- Faster Recovery: As a minimally invasive technique, 3D laparoscopy typically results in less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, and quicker recovery compared to open surgery.
- Lower Risk of Complications: The enhanced visualization reduces the risk of accidental damage to nearby organs and blood vessels, leading to safer outcomes.
Yes, it can. Endometriosis is a leading cause of infertility, and removing endometrial lesions is often necessary to improve fertility. With 3D laparoscopy, we are able to thoroughly remove endometriotic tissue while preserving as much healthy ovarian and uterine tissue as possible. This is especially important for women who wish to conceive naturally after surgery. By reducing the extent of tissue damage and enhancing the precision of the excision, 3D laparoscopy can improve fertility outcomes significantly.
Most women diagnosed with endometriosis, especially those with moderate to severe cases or who experience chronic pain or infertility, can benefit from 3D laparoscopy. It is particularly useful for women who have had previous surgeries with persistent symptoms or those who have deep infiltrating endometriosis. However, the decision to proceed with 3D laparoscopy should be individualized based on the patient’s symptoms, the extent of the disease, and their reproductive goals.
The recovery process following 3D laparoscopy is generally quicker and less painful than after traditional open surgery or even 2D laparoscopy. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a week or two, depending on the severity of the disease and the extent of the surgery. The smaller incisions also reduce the risk of infection and result in minimal scarring.
3D laparoscopy has truly transformed how we approach endometriosis in India, especially in complex cases where traditional methods may not provide adequate results. At Pandit Hospital in Ahmednagar, Maharashtra, we are proud to be pioneers in offering this advanced technology.
