LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY
Laparoscopic Surgery (Minimally Invasive Surgery)
Laparoscopy, also known as keyhole surgery or minimally invasive surgery, is a modern surgical technique that allows surgeons to examine and operate inside the abdomen and pelvis using small incisions. This approach reduces recovery time, minimizes scarring, and offers better outcomes compared to traditional open surgery.
Increasingly, laparoscopic surgery is becoming the preferred choice for a wide range of procedures due to its clinical benefits and cost-effectiveness.
