Laparoscopic Surgery
Laparoscopic surgery, also known as minimally invasive surgery, is a technique that allows surgery to be
performed without the long traditional incision. By using multiple small incisions, each a few
centimeters long, the surgeon inserts instruments that carry a tiny camera. The camera allows the
surgeon to visualize the internal organs. Incisions are made through the skin, muscle and other tissue,
making laparoscopic surgery safer as less tissue is cut.
