Case description

Dr. William H. Parker performs a laparoscopic myomectomy for a woman with an 8 cm fibroid. The surgery was transmitted live to 1,500 international attendees at the Global Congress of Minimally Invasive Surgery in Orlando, Florida. The operation took one and half hours to perform, but the procedure is edited to 4 minutes to show the key steps. Surgery was very successful, the patient went home the same day (outpatient surgery), and recovered to full activity within one week.
