Laparoscopy and Keyhole Surgery
Laparoscopy and Keyhole Surgery is a minimally invasive surgical technique that allows doctors to perform surgeries with small incisions, typically no larger than a few millimeters. This method is commonly used for diagnostic purposes or to treat conditions such as endometriosis, ovarian cysts, fibroids, or pelvic inflammatory disease. By using a small camera (laparoscope) and specialized instruments inserted through tiny incisions, the surgeon can view and treat the affected areas with great precision, leading to less pain, quicker recovery, and minimal scarring.
Laparoscopy, also known as keyhole surgery, involves inserting a small camera through a tiny incision in the abdomen, allowing surgeons to view inside the body without large incisions. It is commonly used to treat conditions like ovarian cysts, fibroids, and endometriosis, as well as for sterilization, gallbladder removal, or weight loss surgery. The main advantages of laparoscopy include reduced recovery time, less pain, smaller scars, and a lower risk of infection compared to traditional open surgery. The procedure is typically done under general anesthesia, with most patients able to go home the same day. Its precision makes it a preferred choice for both diagnosis and treatment
