  1. Introduction to Laparoscopic Surgery

  2. Laparoscopic surgery • Laparoscopy is an advanced surgical technique that allows the surgeon to look into the abdomen via a 5 or 10 mm telescope called a laparoscope. Major abdominal surgery can be performed using laparoscopic techniques, through tiny cuts that are typically 3 to 5 mm in size.

  3. Scope of laparoscopic surgery • Almost all abdominal surgeries can be conducted using laparoscopic techniques. These include common surgeries such as appendectomy, cholecystectomy and hernia repair as well as more complex ones such as splenectomy, pancreatic and colon surgeries as well as metabolic and bariatric surgeries. Most oncologic surgeries for cancer can also be safely performed with laparoscopic techniques.

  4. Advantages of choosing laparoscopy over open surgery • In any laparoscopic surgery, there is no large cut and no open wounds. Since the entire surgery is performed through tiny cuts, the patient feels very little pain; the recovery period is shorter; and the cosmetic outcome is excellent.

  5. Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) • Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery, or SILS is an innovative minimally-invasive technique in which the entire surgery is performed through a single cut that is made at the navel. The scar gets hidden deep inside the navel and there are no visible marks after the procedure, making it a “scarless” surgery.
