    By Ramon Yera, MD on 02/20/20 (last updated on 12/24/24)

    What is a LEEP procedure?

    Advantages of our Minimally Invasive LEEP Procedure(cold knife cone) procedure

    LEEP stands for Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure and involves using a narrow wand with a fine electrified wire loop at the end that is used to carefully and precisely remove a limited amount of cervical tissue which will be tested for cancer.

    The objective of this procedure is to remove all abnormal cells plus a narrow margin of surrounding healthy tissue (known as obtaining a “clean margin”), so that a margin free of abnormal cells remain, thus decreasing your chance of developing cancer. The removed tissue is sent to a laboratory for testing.

    What is a Cold Knife Cone Biopsy?

    This procedure involves using a scalpel or laser to remove a large cone-shaped segment of tissue from your cervix that contains abnormal cells plus a narrow margin of surrounding healthy tissue. The removed tissue is sent to a laboratory for testing to identify any precancerous cells and/or cancerous cells.

    Why is a LEEP Procedure or a Cold Knife Cone Biopsy performed?

    When a PAP test is performed, your doctor takes a sample of tissue from your cervix in order to screen for abnormal precancerous cell changes that can develop into cervical cancer.

    If your doctor informs you that your PAP test results show abnormal precancerous cells in your cervical tissue (a situation known as cervical dysplasia), the next step is to remove any abnormal tissue surrounding the biopsy site. This is done in order to make sure that all abnormal cells are removed, thus reducing your risk of these cells becoming cancerous.

    There are two different procedures for removing abnormal cervical tissue and both are performed on an out-patient basis at our Surgery Center:

    • A LEEP procedure
    • A Cold Knife Cone Biopsy

    Watch Dr. Aliabadi remove an 8-pound fibroid tumor laparoscopically on The Doctors TV Show.

    How is a LEEP done?

    The procedure is performed in our surgical suite. You are positioned lying on your back with your feet in stirrups. After your surgeon inserts a speculum to open your vagina and visualize your cervix, a local anesthetic will be injected into your cervix. This is known as a cervical block.

    If needed, the cervical block will be combined with oral or intravenous pain medication to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. In addition, Nitrous Oxide (aka “laughing gas”) may be used to not only greatly minimize pain, but also to help with anxiety.

    The LEEP wand will be passed through your vagina and into your cervix and will be used to extract the abnormal tissue plus a small margin of surrounding healthy tissue (a lesion removal technique known as obtaining “clean margins”) with the goal of removing all abnormal tissue with the potential to progress into cancer.  

    An electrical current is run through the fine LEEP wire as it passes through the tissue in order to cauterize the area and seal the blood vessels to minimize bleeding. You will hear humming and/or blowing sounds from the equipment during your procedure. You may experience slight pressure or cramping.

    The entire procedure will take from 20 to 40 minutes, after which you will be taken to the recovery area and monitored until your anesthesia wears off. You will then be able to go home with your designated driver.

    How is a Cold Knife Cone Biopsy done?

    As with the LEEP procedure, the procedure will be performed in our surgical suite. You will be positioned on your back with your feet in stirrups. Your surgeon will inject local anesthesia to numb your cervix. Oral or intravenous pain medications may be given to make you more comfortable. Nitrous oxide (aka “laughing gas”) may also be provided to minimize pain and anxiety.

    Next, your surgeon will insert a speculum into your vagina to gain access to your cervix. A surgical knife or a laser knife will be used to remove a cone-shaped sample of cervical tissue. This tissue will be sent to the lab to be evaluated for signs of cancer.

    Recovery from a LEEP Procedure or a Cold Knife Cone Biopsy

    It is not uncommon to experience some of the following unpleasant symptoms after a LEEP or Cold Knife Cone Biopsy:

    • Mild cramping: is usually managed with ibuprofen or using a heating pad
    • Dark brown vaginal discharge: is oxygenated blood from the surgical site inside your cervix
    • Vaginal discharge: that can last anywhere from one to three weeks

    It is important to refrain from sexual intercourse and from inserting anything into your vagina for 3 to 4 weeks after surgery because it puts you at risk of developing an infection or complication. You should use sanitary pads instead of tampons to absorb bloody discharge.

    Douching is not recommended.

    You will return for a follow-up visit 3 to 4 months after your procedure. Your surgeon may want to perform a repeat PAP smear at that time to monitor your cervix. Generally speaking, women who undergo a LEEP procedure will need more frequent PAP testing.

    Complications

    Although complications are extremely rare, you should call your doctor if you develop any of the following concerning symptoms:

    • Fever
    • Nausea
    • Foul-smelling discharge
    • Worsening pain
    • Severe bleeding or clotting (going through more than one sanitary pad per hour)

    Our Patients Say...

    patients block

    When she diagnosed me I felt this overwelming sense of relief that I hadn't had in years. See, I knew something wasn't right, but every doctor I went to just did the normal tests and told me I was fine and that everything was normal. Long story short, I required surgery and Dr. Aliabadi's staff went above and beyond to get me scheduled for surgery that week so I could be on the road to recovery sooner rather than later.

    After surgery Dr. Aliabadi AND her staff followed up with me to make sure I was OK.

    Amy J. (on Yelp)

    She very thoroughly explained everything she found, why it's happening and what the best course of action is. For the first time ever, I felt heard and understood and most importantly I felt truly cared for. If you're experiencing similar issues, I beg you to please go see her and not waste your time on any other doctor.

    Sofia B. (on Yelp)

    The best OB you will ever have. Hands down. Changed my life! Dr. Aliabadi is extremely knowledgeable and changed my quality of my life with endometriosis.

    Yasmine H. (on Yelp)

    Our sincere gratitude and appreciation in having Dr. Aliabadi as our physician. We are deeply grateful for the way she manages her practice, her appointment visits, how well she knows her profession, and how much she truly cares.  Most importantly, we are grateful for her true understanding of what a patient is going through, not only physically but emotionally. Thank you and please know we very much appreciate you!

    Jim S. (on Google)

    I was having issues with an ovarian cyst (never had one in my life before this).  I ended up needing a laparoscopic surgery and although I was terrified and the surgery was sudden (I'm afraid of anything medical), I felt completely at ease knowing that Dr. Aliabadi was going to be doing my surgery. The surgery was a breeze (in and out with no complications within hours). 2 weeks post-op I feel almost back to normal. The incisions are so small that 6 months from now I will hardly notice them.

    Brittany H. (on Yelp)

    Dr. Aliabadi is a dream. Really, I can't even put into words how amazing she is.  My husband says "she's such a badass" and he means that with all sincerity :) She is an expert in her field and knowledgeable beyond.  She is a no BS kinda doctor, but compassionate at the same time.  She is straight forward, direct and a top-notch quality doctor.

    Sabrina S. (on Yelp)

    The knowledge of Doctor Thais Aliabadi is amazing.  She explained to me in detail about my problem.  Other doctors never spent so much time on the explanation.  She told me right away what caused my pain and did some tests that other doctors never did to find out what caused my pain.  I highly recommend Dr. Aliabadi to everyone.  She will find the solution to your problem!

    Lana S. (on Yelp)

    The most caring and amazing doctor I have ever been to. Saved my life and always does what is right for the patient. Makes you feel very comfortable and is very knowledgeable and thorough in her approach. I recommend her to all my friends.

    Jimmey K. (on Yelp)

    Dr. Aliabadi took a lifetime worth of pain away in under 2 hours! She was the only one who listened to me and genuinely cared enough to help me with my endometriosis. Although the surgery wasn't cheap, it has already changed my life tremendously in just 1 short year. It was worth every penny and I'm so very grateful for her!

    Lesley B. (on Yelp)

    Dr. Aliabadi diagnosed me almost instantly and laid out a plan of action that has proven to be 100 percent effective. I HIGHLY recommend her.

    Grace P. (on GatherUp)

    If not for Dr. Aliabadi the tumor on my right ovary may have turned cancerous. In my opinion she saved my life. Forever in her debt. I love this woman. Kimmy and the rest of the staff make going to the doctor almost a treat.

    Mary M. (on GatherUp)

    Dr. Aliabadi made me feel immediately at ease and took the time to explain various medical issues and numerous options available to me. She identified issues and concerns that my previous doctors had missed. She truly has an encyclopedic knowledge of all medical issues, and I am truly grateful to her for the incredible care she has provided to me.

    P. N. (on GatherUp)

    It's always a good experience in your office. Dr. Aliabadi is wonderful and the whole office does a great job. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming - unusual in a doctor's office.

    Jane M. (on GatherUp)

    Love the office, staff and Dr. Aliabadi - I have been a patient for years - She has the best in-office technology and knowledge to be sure you leave knowing you are healthy and have the best health care for our times

    Dr. Aliabadi is the ideal ob-gyn. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, thorough, considerate, and empathetic. I enthusiastically recommend her to friends and family. She is generous with her time and advice and never rushes through appointments. She addresses every question and concern with great care and attention. Her office staff is always very pleasant and conducts business in a very expeditious and courteous manner.

    Michelle S. (on GatherUp)

    Dr. Aliabadi is amazing. After several doctors and different opinions about my medical options, ranging from hysterectomy to half completed procedures, she is the only one that encouraged me and gave me hope for a better quality of life. I would definitely recommend her expertise and skills to those in need.

    C. H. (on GatherUp)

    I love Dr. Aliabadi and everyone in her office. You will not find a more knowledgeable and compassionate OB/GYN, or a more supportive and accommodating office.

    Nanika L. (GatherUp)

    Thais is the best and I always value her input and advice. Her confidence and commitment to me as her patient has never been in question. She goes above and beyond what most doctors suggest and analyze in various parts of my health. I appreciate her very much.

    Portia F. (on GatherUp)

    It was absolutely life changing. Dr. Aliabadi is God’s biggest gift to families around the world, especially those of us who were living in chronic pain before we had the pleasure of meeting her! I can’t thank her and her team enough for what they’ve done for me.

    Lesley B. (on GatherUp)

    I'm so blessed to have had Dr. Aliabadi for my procedure, a doctor with such great compassion for her patients. Her staff in the office as well as the surgery center made me feel very special and gave me the best care anyone could ask for. Thank you.

    Linda B. (on Facebook)

    Dr. Aliabadi is the best OB/GYN surgeon in the world. She made me feel like my health was important to her. Dr. Aliabadi made my anxiety disappear when she said I could have an outpatient hysterectomy. I was driving and able to complete a 4 1/2 mile walk three days after surgery. I am so happy that I had the Laparoscopic Hysterectomy-Minimally Invasive procedure.

    Sheila B. (on Google)

    Dr. Aliabadi is the best doctor I have ever had with the best staff and group of women at her side. This entire office is truly a pleasure to visit each time, assuring you the absolute best experience possible no matter your circumstances that bring you. All while Dr. Aliabadi acts as your advocate, listens to you, and truly champions your health and well-being above all.
