I kept being told was that I wouldn’t be able to have a minimally invasive surgery..My (uterus) up to my sternum…CIGC was able to perform my surgery with tiny incisions …my energy is back, lost 20lbs. I’m not wearing maternity looking clothes or being asked “when are you due” by strangers. This surgery has been a life saver…”
“I originally planned a full, open hysterectomy from my local surgeon…I had the surgery as an outpatient and I felt great just after two weeks. I highly recommend CIGC”
“The majority of surgeons would have had to switch to a full abdominal hysterectomy….CIGC skill and expertise allowed them to keep it a laparoscopic procedure, and I was almost fully back to normal in less than a week. My discomfort was very minimal…get a second opinion and evaluate your options. I am so very glad that I did.”

“Florida. I got a LAAM procedure from CIGC at their NJ location just outside Manhattan..I wasn’t a great candidate for the procedures available locally. CIGC removed 7 fibroids and endometriosis. I was on my feet and able to take care of myself and walk around within a few days. Pain was super minimal during the recovery. Over a year later my pain is gone, my life is back, and I feel SO MUCH BETTER!”
“Africa. I was looking for specialty care.. A minimally invasive treatment for my fibroid removal.

*Results published in The Journal of Minimally Invasive Gynecology
The LAAM procedure has been proven superior to other minimally invasive techniques and open surgery. In addition, we have shown that these procedures can be performed safely and more efficiently in an ambulatory surgery center. Our nationally and internationally renowned techniques have been published in prestigious medical journals due to exceptional patient outcomes.

1. Laparoscopic-Assisted Myomectomy Surgery with Bilateral Uterine Artery Occlusion/Ligation
Published in The Journal of Minimally Invasive Gynecology MacKoul P, Danilyants N, Baxi R, van der Does L, Haworth L.
In the comparison of 1,313 patients who underwent a myomectomy (the review included patients who had LAAM®, robotic, standard laparoscopic, or open myomectomy surgery), LAAM (laparoscopic assisted abdominal myomectomy) showed the best patient outcomes, including removal of large and multiple fibroids, lowest complication rates, and the lowest conversion to open surgery at 0.7 percent. Patients interested in fertility had temporary occlusion of the uterine arteries thereby maintaining full blood flow to the uterus.
2. LAAM: Surgery Center Versus Outpatient Hospital
