Laparoscopic or minimally invasive surgery has transformed patient care by enabling complex procedures to be performed through tiny incisions rather than large cuts. At Global Heart Hospital, our team of experienced laparoscopic surgeons provides the most advanced laparoscopic surgery to patients in Punjab and surrounding regions.
What is Laparoscopic Surgery?
Laparoscopic surgery, also called keyhole or bandaid surgery, involves making small 0.5 – 1 cm incisions on the abdomen and inserting a thin, lighted tube attached to a camera. The laparoscope projects a magnified view of the internal organs onto a monitor to guide the surgeon during the procedure. Long, thin instruments are inserted through additional small incisions to operate.
Advantages of Laparoscopic Surgery
Compared to traditional open surgery, a laparoscopic approach offers numerous benefits:
– Smaller incisions mean reduced pain, bleeding, infection risk, and scarring
– Shorter hospital stays and faster recovery for patients
– Lower trauma to abdominal and pelvic structures
– Less blood loss during surgery
– Reduced postoperative pain medication requirements
– Quicker return to normal activities for patients
