Question

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

If hysterectomy has not been recommended, tummy tuck can proceed with an enlarged uterus.  Find the plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of tummy tucks each year.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Ronald J. Edelson, MD · Answer

You can certainly have a tummy tuck.  My question is this; do you need a hysterectomy?  If so, the two procedures are often done at the same time safely.  Talk to both your gynecologist and a plastic surgeon to see if this is an option for you.

Jourdan Gottlieb, MD · Answer

Yes, if you "need" a TT you can have one. Question is timing and priorities. You don't comment as to whether treatment has been recommended for the uterus--either hysterectomy, fibroid removal, or endovascular treatment. 

	It would probably best not to do a TT at the time of a major open gyn operation.

	If no treatment is in the offing, the TT could be done anytime.

	All the best.

Peter E. Johnson, MD · Answer

If you do have an issue with uterine enlargement and fibroids, it might be best to have these issues addressed and resolved before a tummy tuck. This way you can feel more confident in getting the best result, and not having to worry about what might come after that could compromise your result.

Ramon Navarro, MD · Answer

your best choise could be  first extirpate the intrameral fibroid and after  realize the TT i dont council  to realize  both procedures at same time it is highly jeopardizing and  bother to you, unless than  intrameral could be solved by endoscopic way ( then small tumors only).

	lo correcto seria primero realizarte la extirpacion de fibromas uterinos y luego el TT no al mismo tiempo, al menos  que la extirpacion de los fibromas sea por via endoscopica y sean pequeños  pudiese realizarse simultaneamente
