What is minimally invasive, laparoscopic surgery?Many surgeries now can be performed with several tiny incisions ranging from 3mm-12mm. A camera is inserted inside your abdomen, and your operation can be performed with long instruments rather than the traditional open approach (large incision on your abdomen).
Laparoscopic surgery has been shown to shorten hospital stays and decrease overall pain. In addition, patients return to work quicker with a more rapid recovery as well as cost savings.
