Guest guest Posted June 6, 2001 Report Share Posted June 6, 2001 I WAS TOLD THAT THE LASER COULD HARM THE LINING... but maybe his thinking is that you hvae so much scar tissue in there he would use it for the initial removal of the thickest scar tissue thus not harming the lining? i would ask him about that.. when i was seeing one RE she was going to use a versipoint( type of laser).. then it was recalled ... she would not do surgery since that is waht seh was comfortable with.. red flag there... went to DR Gordon and he said the lasers can harm the endo lining which we are trying to preserve.. so he uses sissors.. now i n my case.. i had a lot of scarring, but he said it cut easily with the sissors.. as far as acreta?? i do not know for sure, but would tend to agree with what he said on that.. i think any scarring in uterus increases that chance and previa.. the placenta needs a nice place to attach.. and if it ionly find that way low, well that is where it will attach . near cervix.. ( happened to me last time).. i wish you luck, you are very smart doing your homework.. i wish i did that when i had my surgeries prior to finally seeing an RE.. i had too much damage done by then.. my lining is shot.. i think ( after doing research) the ob used a sharp currette which also damages lining... ughhhhh... well, goodl uck and keep us posted. janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
