Too many women hear the same dismissive words for years on end: “That’s just part of being a woman.” Months of menstrual pain, heavy bleeding, a constant pressure in the pelvis — symptoms that limit their lives and take a serious toll on their quality of life. And yet, the only recommended solution is often surgery — with significant risks and a long recovery.
Interventional radiology is writing a new chapter. For many gynecological conditions that once almost inevitably required a scalpel, image-guided, minimally invasive procedures are now available — outpatient or with a single overnight stay, without general anesthesia, and backed by published scientific evidence.
At IRZ in Zurich, we treat a wide range of women’s health conditions: from fibroid embolization to treatment of Pelvic Congestion Syndrome. Our team — experienced interventional radiologists — works hand in hand with your gynecologist. You’re no longer facing an either-or decision. You now have more options.
