Gurdaspur, 03 May 2025 – The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at EMC Group, City Hospital, has successfully preserved a patient’s only remaining fallopian tube using advanced laparoscopic surgery, offering new hope in the field of fertility preservation, particularly for women facing recurrent ectopic pregnancies.
The patient had previously undergone a laparotomy and salpingectomy (removal of one fallopian tube) due to an ectopic pregnancy. Unfortunately, another ectopic pregnancy occurred in her only remaining tube, putting her reproductive future at significant risk. Ectopic pregnancy is a condition where a fertilized egg implants and grows outside the main cavity of the uterus, often in the fallopian tube, and can lead to severe complications if not treated promptly.
Given the critical nature of this case—with the patient’s fertility hanging in the balance—immediate intervention was necessary.
Dr. Riya Mahajan, a highly skilled and experienced minimally invasive gynecological surgeon, led the complex procedure. Instead of removing the tube entirely, Dr. Mahajan meticulously performed an advanced laparoscopic surgery to repair and preserve the fallopian tube. This approach not only successfully treated the ectopic pregnancy but also maintained the patient’s potential for natural conception in the future. The minimally invasive nature of the procedure ensured a quicker recovery and better overall health outcomes for the patient.
Commenting on the success, Dr. Riya Mahajan stated,
“This case highlights the power of advanced laparoscopic techniques. Today, we can manage complex and challenging conditions with greater precision, offering better treatment while safeguarding a woman’s reproductive health. Helping this patient move closer to leading a normal life again is truly rewarding.”
The use of cutting-edge medical technologies at EMC Group, City Hospital, showcases the hospital’s commitment to providing the best healthcare in the field of reproductive and gynecological medicine. Patients not only receive timely and safe treatments but also see their chances of future parenthood significantly enhanced.

This case has further demonstrated that laparoscopic surgery is a highly effective, fertility-preserving option, particularly when a woman has only one fallopian tube remaining. Such surgical interventions not only yield excellent immediate results but also improve the patient’s quality of life in the long term.
With this achievement, EMC Group, City Hospital has set a new standard in gynecological and reproductive healthcare not just in Gurdaspur, but across the region.
