Aevitas Day Theatre

ery refers to the use of optical instruments or lenses to visualize the pelvis or inside of the uterus and the use small instruments to perform the surgery. This is a highly advanced way of performing gynaecological surgery providing the best level of care for the patient. It allows operations that would usually require large incisions(laparotomy) to be performed through a few small incisions resulting in less pain, shorter hospital stay, quicker recovery and superior cosmetic results. At Aevitas we aim to provide all our surgery via an endoscopic route.

Hysteroscopy refers to the visualization of the inside of the uterus with a lens inserted through the vagina and cervix. This allows for the inspection of the uterine cavity and the diagnosis of any intrauterine pathology. Major advances in hysteroscopic equipment allows for surgery to be performed through the hysteroscopy to address a range of condition. These procedures can be done in our day theatre with discharge on the same day.

Laparoscopy refers to the visualization of the peritoneal cavity, including the pelvis, with a lens inserted through the umbilicus. This allows for the inspection of abdominal organs and in particular the pelvic organs as it relates to gynaecology. The addition of two to three smaller(5mm) incisions allows for the performance of even major pelvic surgery through this minimal access technique.

Egg retrieval for IVF, ICSI, Egg Donation and Egg Freezing is conducted under twilight sedation at the Aevitas Day Theatre. Following this short procedure, our patients are taken care by our caring expert nursing team.

A testis biopsy is a medical procedure in which a small sample of tissue is taken from the testicle for examination. This is typically done to evaluate and/or to preserve male fertility.

In the setting of Aevitas Fertility Clinic, this procedure is often used in cases such as cancer patients or patients who have been diagnosed with a form of obstructive azoospermia. Obstructive azoospermia is a condition where a man has no sperm in his semen due to a blockage in the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles (this includes males who have had a vasectomy).
