Surgical assessment and treatment using small incisions and a camera when a laparoscopic approach is suitable.
About Laparoscopic Surgery
Laparoscopic surgery uses small cuts and a camera to see inside the abdomen or pelvis. It can be used to investigate a problem or perform certain operations. Whether it is suitable depends on the condition and the patient’s health.
At your consultation, discuss the purpose of the operation, alternatives and important risks. Your surgeon will explain preparation and recovery and whether a change to open surgery may be needed. Follow the hospital’s individual instructions about medicines, eating, drinking and returning home.
