Minimally Invasive, Maximum Benefit: What is Laparoscopic Surgery?

Laparoscopic surgery, also known as minimally invasive surgery, has revolutionized the field of surgery. Instead of a large open incision, the surgeon makes several small incisions, each about half an inch long. A tiny camera (laparoscope) is inserted through one incision, which transmits a high-definition image to a monitor, giving the surgeon a clear view of the surgical area. Specialized instruments are inserted through the other incisions to perform the procedure.

The benefits are significant: less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, faster recovery times, and smaller, less noticeable scars. This technique is used for a wide range of procedures, including gallbladder removal, hernia repair, and many gynecological and gastrointestinal surgeries. At Biradar Hospital, our surgeons are highly skilled in advanced laparoscopic techniques, offering patients the benefits of modern, minimally invasive care.
