Laparoscopic Surgery
• Laparoscopic surgery is also known as minimally invasive surgery or a key-hole surgery. Laparoscopic surgeries are widely performed in the fields like gastroenterology, gynecology and urology. Laparoscopic Surgery is an advanced surgical technique in which unlike open procedures– operations are performed by means of small incisions (usually 0.5–1.5 cm) leading to minimal complications and pain resulting in faster recovery and superior outcomes post-treatment.
