Laparoscopic Surgery

According to Wikipedia, Laparoscopic surgery is also called keyhole surgery, (when natural body openings are not used), bandaid surgery, or minimally invasive surgery (MIS), and is a surgical technique. Medically, laparoscopic surgery refers only to operations within the abdomen or pelvic cavity. Laparoscopic surgery belongs to the field of endoscopy.

When there are no body openings to use then several small incisions are made to give the surgeon access to the area of the body he wants to work on. Laparoscopic surgery techniques allow the use of small instruments such as lights, cameras and very small scalpels and clamps.

 

 

Advantages of Laparoscopic Surgery

Due to the small incisions that are made, the healing time is greatly reduced. No large muscles are cut and often people who have this technique used are up and around a long time before people who undergo the more conventional surgery methods.

Types of Laparoscopic Surgery

Because of decreased healing times and less trauma to the patient many different types of surgery are now being done by the laparoscopic method. To list just a few:

  • Prostate
  • Gall bladder
  • Weight Loss
  • Various urological surgeries
  • Various cancer surgeries
  • tubal ligations
  • gastric bypass
