Laparoscopic surgery generally refers to a minimally invasive surgical technique where surgeons perform surgery through several small incisions using a camera to view the procedure on a TV monitor. Though it was started with common operations but nowadays, we can do more complex operations through the same technique with the help of more sophisticated machine and advance training. In comparison to a traditional, open surgery, laparoscopy is much more comfortable and is less painful as well.
The small incision takes less amount of time to heal, and so, patients are allowed to get back to their regular activities much sooner. Patients who go through laparoscopic surgeries spend less time in the hospital and overall spend less money as well. Laparoscopic surgeries help in reducing the risk of bleeding during the surgery as the incision is relatively very small than the ones made during a traditional surgery. The amount of blood loss is minimal in such a case and therefore the need of blood transfusion is also decreased, significantly.
