Dilatation and Curettage (D&C) of the Uterus in Udaipur
Star Hospital, Udaipur, offers safe and expert Dilatation and Curettage (D&C) procedures, performed by experienced gynaecologists in a sterile, well-equipped environment. This common gynaecological treatment is used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, helping to manage uterine conditions and certain types of pregnancy loss.
What Is Dilatation and Curettage (D&C)?
Dilatation and Curettage refers to the widening (dilatation) of the cervix followed by the surgical removal or sampling of the uterine lining using a specialised instrument called a curette.
It may be performed to:
-
Remove retained tissue after a miscarriage.
-
Diagnose or treat abnormal uterine bleeding.
-
Remove polyps, small fibroids, or endometrial tissue for biopsy.
-
Manage incomplete or missed abortion in early pregnancy.
The procedure helps restore normal uterine function, relieves symptoms, and provides tissue samples for accurate diagnosis.
How the Procedure Is Performed
At Star Hospital, Udaipur, the D&C procedure is performed under sterile conditions by a qualified gynaecologist. Depending on the clinical situation and patient preference, the surgery may be done under local anaesthesia, sedation, or general anaesthesia.
During the procedure:
-

-
A curette or suction device is used to remove the uterine lining or contents.
