Dr. Mostafa Al-Tarique (Ronee)
Consultant, Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility
Bangladesh Medical University (Ex-PG Hospital)
- Advanced surgical fellowships across leading centers in France, Italy, Germany & Belgium.
- Specialist in advanced laparoscopic treatment of endometriosis, ovarian, tubal and pelvic adhesive disease.
- Integrated care spanning diagnostic workup, fertility-conscious surgery, and IVF/IUI guidance.
"The goal of laparoscopic surgery is not simply to operate. It is to identify the right problem, choose the right approach, and protect the patient's future fertility while doing it."
Understanding The Procedure
What Is Laparoscopic Surgery?
A minimally invasive technique that allows direct examination and treatment of structures inside the abdomen and pelvis through a few small incisions — rather than one large abdominal cut.
Small Access→Magnified Visualization→Precise Surgical Treatment
Direct HD Visualization
A magnified, real-time view of the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes and pelvic peritoneum — structures that examination or imaging alone cannot always fully assess.
See-and-Treat Efficiency
When there's a specific indication, diagnosis and surgical correction — adhesiolysis, endometriosis treatment, ovarian cystectomy — can often be completed in the same session.
Structure-Preserving Technique
Surgical planning prioritizes healthy ovarian, tubal and uterine tissue wherever possible, so treatment supports — rather than compromises — future fertility.
Not every infertility patient needs laparoscopy. Modern fertility evaluation generally begins with a thorough history, examination and less-invasive investigations; laparoscopy is considered when the clinical picture gives a specific reason for surgical assessment or treatment.
Procedure Classification
Diagnostic vs. Operative Laparoscopy
Compare the key parameters depending on your specific clinical requirement.
| Feature | Diagnostic Laparoscopy | Operative Laparoscopy |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Goal | Directly assess pelvic anatomy when there's a specific indication — e.g. suspected endometriosis, adhesions, or unexplained pelvic pain. | Surgically treat identified pathology — endometriosis, ovarian cysts, adhesions, selected fibroids or tubal disease — in the same setting. |
| Common Uses | Evaluating suspected pelvic pathology that couldn't be confirmed by history, examination or imaging alone. | Excision/ablation of endometriosis, adhesiolysis, ovarian cystectomy, selected laparoscopic myomectomy, tubal procedures. |
| Procedure Time | 20 to 40 minutes | 45 to 120+ minutes, depending on complexity |
| Anesthesia | General anesthesia (brief) | General anesthesia |
| Recovery Time | Return to routine activity within a few days | Resume normal activity within 1–2 weeks, depending on complexity |
Clinical Expertise
Conditions Treated
Explore specific conditions addressed through advanced laparoscopic surgery.
Excision / Ablation
Endometriosis
Tissue resembling the uterine lining growing outside the uterus, often linked to pelvic pain, painful periods and difficulty conceiving. Laparoscopy allows direct assessment and, where appropriate, treatment of selected lesions and adhesions.
Aims to reduce pain & support fertility
Cystectomy
Ovarian Endometrioma (Chocolate Cyst)
A form of ovarian endometriosis. Depending on cyst size, symptoms, ovarian reserve, age and fertility plans, management ranges from observation to surgery — performed with attention to preserving ovarian reserve.
Careful, reserve-conscious removal
Adhesiolysis
Pelvic Adhesions
Scar tissue from previous surgery, infection or endometriosis can restrict the normal position and movement of pelvic organs. Laparoscopy allows direct identification and, when appropriate, careful surgical separation.
Restores pelvic anatomy & mobility
Tubal Assessment
Selected Tubal Conditions
When laparoscopy is performed for an appropriate indication, chromopertubation may assess tubal patency. It's not used routinely just to test whether the tubes are open — less invasive tests come first.
Assesses patency when indicated
Myomectomy
Selected Fibroids
Benign uterine growths whose fertility impact depends on size, number and location. Eligible fibroids can be removed laparoscopically while preserving the uterus; cavity-projecting fibroids are often better addressed hysteroscopically.
Preserves the uterus where possible
Cyst Evaluation
Ovarian Cysts & Adnexal Masses
Not every ovarian cyst requires surgery. When imaging, symptoms, growth or risk assessment suggest surgical evaluation, selected benign-appearing cysts can be managed laparoscopically.
Minimizes unnecessary surgery
Evidence-Based Approach
Why Individualized Decision-Making Matters
1
Accurate Diagnosis First
Direct visualization and careful pre-operative evaluation identify the actual problem before any surgical decision is made.
2
Fertility-Conscious Surgical Planning
Ovarian reserve, reproductive anatomy and future fertility goals are weighed carefully, especially in ovarian surgery.
3
Individualized, Not One-Size-Fits-All
The right surgical strategy depends on symptoms, disease extent, age, prior treatment and reproductive plans — never on diagnosis alone.
Laparoscopy can be valuable in selected fertility and gynecological cases — but it is not a routine test for every patient. Professional guidance, including ASRM recommendations, emphasizes systematic, less-invasive evaluation first; laparoscopy is not routinely recommended for unexplained infertility without a specific suspected pelvic finding. Dr. Mostafa reviews each patient's history, examination and investigations individually before recommending surgery.

Clear & Transparent Protocol
Your Laparoscopy Journey
Step-by-step overview of what to expect from consultation to recovery.
Step 01
Pre-Procedure & Planning
- Detailed Assessment: Medical, reproductive and surgical history reviewed alongside imaging and prior fertility investigations.
- Evaluation: Pre-operative blood workup and anesthesia screening.
- Surgical Planning: Confirming whether surgery is appropriate and selecting the best approach.
Step 02
Procedure Day
- Anesthesia: Performed under general anesthesia.
- Small Abdominal Access: A few small incisions introduce the laparoscope and instruments.
- Magnified Treatment: Excision, adhesiolysis, ovarian surgery or myomectomy guided by magnified visualization.
- Duration: Typically 20 to 120+ minutes, depending on complexity.
Step 03
Recovery & Next Steps
- Hospital Stay: Many procedures are day-care or short-stay, depending on complexity.
- Downtime: Most patients resume routine activity within days to two weeks.
- Fertility Timeline: Dr. Mostafa advises when to try for pregnancy or begin fertility treatment.
Patient Guidance
Frequently Asked Questions
Laparoscopic surgery is performed under general anesthesia, so the procedure itself is not experienced as pain. Some postoperative abdominal soreness or shoulder-tip discomfort can occur during recovery, and its intensity depends on the complexity of surgery.
There is no single duration. A relatively straightforward procedure may take under an hour, while advanced surgery involving extensive endometriosis, adhesions or multiple pelvic structures can take longer. Expected duration is discussed with you before the operation.
Recovery depends on the type of surgery, extent of disease, surgical complexity and individual health. Many patients return to routine activity sooner than after comparable open surgery, but the timeline should be individualized to your procedure.
In selected conditions — a surgically correctable endometrioma, adhesions or tubal problem — treating the underlying pathology may improve the reproductive situation. Laparoscopy does not automatically improve fertility for every patient; the expected benefit depends on your specific diagnosis.
Not routinely. Laparoscopy is not recommended simply as a routine infertility test or automatically before IVF. It becomes relevant when there's a specific clinical indication or suspected pelvic pathology that could change your treatment plan.
Laparoscopy examines the outside of the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes and pelvis through small keyhole incisions in the abdomen. Hysteroscopy examines the inside of the uterine cavity through the natural cervical canal — no abdominal cuts. In complex fertility cases, Dr. Mostafa may perform a combined laparo-hysteroscopy.
