The medical team in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department at Dr. Soliman Fakeeh Hospital – Madinah has successfully performed a delicate procedure to remove a benign ovarian tumor measuring 20 cm in diameter from a 55-year-old patient. The procedure was completed utilizing advanced laparoscopic surgical techniques, entirely avoiding open surgery (laparotomy).
The patient presented with a massive benign ovarian mass, a condition that poses a significant surgical challenge. Laparoscopic resection of tumors of this size requires high-level expertise and advanced surgical skills, whereas conventional approaches in similar cases typically resort to open surgery.
Following a thorough evaluation and the formulation of an optimal treatment plan, the medical team decided to proceed with minimally invasive laparoscopy. Performed through tiny incisions not exceeding 1 cm, this approach successfully prevented a major abdominal incision, minimized post-operative pain, and significantly accelerated the recovery process.
The operation was a complete success, with the tumor entirely resected. Thanks to this advanced approach, the patient was safely discharged from the hospital just one day after the procedure in stable health condition.
This achievement underscores the exceptional competence of the medical staff at Dr. Soliman Fakeeh Hospital – Madinah and their capability to manage complex surgical cases using cutting-edge medical technologies. By improving clinical outcomes, shortening hospitalization periods, and elevating the quality of healthcare, the hospital continues its commitment to delivering top-tier medical services in accordance with the highest international standards.
