We perform gynecological endoscopic and open surgeries, as well as procedures related to miscarriages. Typical gynecological surgeries include hysterectomies, surgery for prolapse and urinary incontinence, and procedures related to changes in the uterus and ovaries. Surgery to treat cancer and endometriosis are among the most demanding procedures we perform. We also perform cesarean sections and other childbirth-related procedures both electively and as emergencies. Our unit is open 24 hours a day. ## [ Maisa Portal (opens in new window, links to another website) ](https://www.maisa.fi/maisa/Authentication/Login?lang=britishenglish) maisa.fi Maisa is a digital patient service where you can manage your health matters online.
