Küstner-Piccoli Operation

Küstner-Piccoli operation

The Küstner-Piccoli operation is a surgical procedure used in gynecology to treat ectopic (ectopic) pregnancy.

The operation was proposed in 1892 by the German gynecologist Otto Küstner and later modified by the Italian surgeon Giovanni Piccoli.

The essence of the operation is as follows: through the lower median incision of the anterior abdominal wall, the abdominal cavity is opened, the affected fallopian tube is isolated and removed along with the fertilized egg. Then a tubectomy (ligation) of the contralateral fallopian tube is performed to prevent the recurrence of an ectopic pregnancy.

The indication for Küstner-piccoli surgery is tubal pregnancy complicated by rupture of the fallopian tube and internal bleeding.

This operation allows you to stop bleeding, remove the dead fetus and prevent recurrence of ectopic pregnancy. Currently, the Küstner-piccoli operation is used quite rarely due to the development of endoscopic surgery, which makes it possible to perform a similar intervention with less trauma.

The Kustner-Piccini Operation is a gynecological operation developed at the beginning of the 20th century by the Italian doctor Gabriel Piccoli and his teacher, the German gynecologist and therapist Karl Wilhelm Küsten. This surgery is used to treat a variety of gynecological conditions, including uterine prolapse, placenta previa and placental abruption.

The operation involves removing part of the lining of the uterus, called the intrauterine adhesion, which can lead to a number of complications such as bleeding, infection, uterine deformation and infertility. The operation is performed under general anesthesia and takes about 30 minutes. After the operation, the patient can be discharged from the hospital after a few days.

Operation Kysgern-Piccoll has evolved over time. Some modern techniques allow the surgery to be performed in a less invasive way, such as using a laser cutter to cut away part of the mucous membrane. Besides,
