What Is Laparoscopic Surgery?

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) or laparoscopic surgery refers to a laparoscopic operation performed using very minimal incisions as opposed to the large incisions in traditional surgery. To inspect the organs, a laparoscope is inserted, which is a thin and tube-like device that is equipped with a high-definition camera and light. The surgeon perceives magnified images on a screen, which allows him to make accurate movements and use extremely controlled methods of surgery.

This new method can decrease the pain level, minimise scarring as well as post-operative recovery duration and is the gold-standard procedure in most surgical diseases.

How the Laparoscopic Procedure Works?

The laparoscopic surgery is well organized and highly regulated procedure and it follows the following steps:

Preoperative Assessment:

Before surgery, we conduct:

Blood tests
Imaging scans
Medical evaluation
Anesthesia consultation

This will make the patient well prepared and fit to undertake the procedure.

Administering Anesthesia:

General anesthesia is applied in the procedure, so that the patient is comfortable and pain-free.

Creating Small Incisions:

The surgeon makes 3-4 small incisions, each one is about 0.5 and 1 cm. These are the points of entry of laparoscopes and surgical instruments.

Inserting the Laparoscope:

Carbon dioxide gas which is gently puffed into the abdomen, to provide a clear working area. Images are sent to the monitor with the laparoscope which is high-resolution.

Performing the Surgery:

The surgeon uses long and slender tools and does the necessary procedures with accuracy while viewing the magnified display on the screen.

Closing the Incisions:

After the surgery is done, the instruments are taken out, the gas is emitted, and the small openings are sewn using dissolvable stitches.

It also reduces the chances of infection and complications to a large extent since small incisions are used. Better visualization and accuracy of the laparoscope guarantees high quality of surgery and, in turn, positive health outcomes and patient satisfaction in the long-term.
