Laparoscopic Surgery

Laparoscopic surgery is also termed as ''minimal access surgery’’or Key Hole surgery . Laparoscopy is the operating procedure where the doctor uses a thin tube inserted with a small light which is guided in a track through a small opening or a cut in the abdomen to observe ,inspect and operate the diseased abdominal organs .This technique facilitates the extraction of tissue samples and the diseased organs through the tube . This kind of operating procedure is a modern surgical technique by which operations in the abdomen or belly are carried out through small cuts or openings (usually 0.5–1.5 cm) as in contrast to, larger cuts or openings needed in the conventional open surgical procedures. In many cases it doesn’t even require you to stay overnight in the hospital. For minor or major surgeries, laparoscopy is best recommended because it is less stressful, may pose fewer problems and costs lesser than conventional open surgery.

  6. Advantage Reduced hemorrhaging, which reduces the chance of needing a blood transfusion. Smaller incision, which reduces pain and shortens recovery time, as well as resulting in less post-operative scarring. Less pain, leading to less pain medication needed.

  7. Continue… Although procedure times are usually slightly longer, hospital stay is less, and often with a same day discharge which leads to a faster return to everyday living. Reduced exposure of internal organs to possible external contaminants thereby reduced risk of acquiring infections.

  8. Disadvantage High cost and technology requirement. Special skills required for its use. Not suitable to perform complicated surgeries. May need secondary open surgery.

  9. Precaution After Surgery It is safe to resume normal activities when you feel able. Do not drive for 24 hours or until after you have stopped your narcotic pain medicine since you will be drowsy.  If your stomach is sore enough to limit motion of your legs, wait to drive until the soreness subsides.
