What Is Laparoscopic Surgery?

Laparoscopic surgery, also called minimally invasive surgery, is a surgical technique that allows selected procedures to be performed through small incisions. A thin camera called a laparoscope provides visualization of the surgical area while specialized instruments are used to perform the procedure.

Laparoscopic surgery is commonly used for a number of abdominal and general surgical procedures. Whether laparoscopic surgery is appropriate depends on the patient's diagnosis, medical history, examination findings, previous operations and other clinical factors.

Dr. Masihullah evaluates each patient carefully before recommending laparoscopic surgery or another appropriate surgical approach.

Benefits of Laparoscopic Surgery

Compared with some conventional open surgical procedures, laparoscopic surgery may provide certain advantages. The benefits vary according to the specific operation and the patient's health.

  • Smaller Incisions: Laparoscopic procedures generally use smaller surgical incisions than many traditional open procedures.
  • Reduced Surgical Scarring: Smaller incisions may result in less visible scarring after healing.
  • Postoperative Comfort: Some laparoscopic procedures may result in less postoperative discomfort compared with comparable open surgery.
  • Recovery Advantages: Depending on the operation, patients may return to normal activities sooner than with some open surgical approaches.
  • Shorter Hospital Stay: Certain laparoscopic procedures may allow earlier discharge when clinically appropriate.
