Southern Cross North Harbour Hospital - Gynaecology
Private Surgical Service, Obstetrics and Gynaecology
This is where you will come to have your surgery performed. The visits to your surgeon before and after surgery will be at their consulting rooms.
Hysteroscopy
A speculum is inserted into your vagina, as for a pap smear, and a long, thin tube with a tiny camera attached (hysteroscope) is placed into the vagina and moved through into the uterus. This allows the surgeon to see inside the uterus and may, in some cases, show the reason for conditions such as infertility or pelvic pain. A hysteroscope may also be used to remove fibroids or polyps or to take a biopsy (small sample of tissue) for examination in the laboratory.
