Laparoscopic Surgery

Laparoscopy (keyhole surgery) is a surgical technique in which we make minor (typically 5-10 mm) nicks in the abdominal wall instead of large cuts on the abdomen. Through these openings, we introduce specialized instruments and a telescope inside the patient’s body to examine and treat diseases of your internal organs
Laparoscopy Surgery can help diagnose many conditions that develop inside your tummy. Laparoscopy is used to carry out surgical procedures and remove a tissue sample for further testing (biopsy).

Laparoscopy is carried out under complete anaesthesia, so you don’t feel pain during the procedure. We make one or more small cuts on your tummy during the surgery. These allow us to insert the laparoscope(Telescope), small surgical tools, and a tube to pump CO2 gas into the abdomen. The telescope makes it easier for us to look around and operate. After the procedure, the gas is let out of your abdomen, the incisions are closed using stitches, and a dressing is applied. You can often go home on the same day. But sometimes an overnight stay is required.
There are several advantages to the patient with laparoscopic surgery versus an open procedure. These include:
Undergoing a laparoscopy carries some risks. However, the risks are relatively low.
Minor complications are estimated to occur in 1 or 2 of a few hundred cases. They include:
Rare complications after laparoscopy are estimated to occur in 1 in every 1,000 cases. They include:
Treatment of many of these rare complications often requires a 2nd operation.
