Minimally Invasive Surgery

Minimal invasive surgery is a surgical technique that enables a surgeon to access the abdominal (tummy) and pelvic regions without the need for large skin incisions.

Often referred to as keyhole surgery or minimally invasive surgery, this procedure utilizes a laparoscope, an instrument that allows the surgeon to avoid the necessity of making substantial incisions.

Laparoscopic surgery involves small incisions through which a thin, flexible tube with a camera which is called laparoscope and miniature surgical instruments are inserted. Surgeons perform procedures by viewing a high definition image of the surgical site on a monitor, allowing for precise maneuvers and reduced tissue damage.

Robotic-assisted surgery takes MIS a step further by incorporating robotic arms operated by surgeons from a console. This enhances dexterity, providing a greater range of motion and improved precision, particularly for complex procedures like cardiac or prostate surgeries.

Endoscopic surgery utilizes even smaller incisions and specialized instruments for surgeries within body cavities. It's commonly employed in procedures related to the digestive tract, respiratory system, and joints.

Benefits of Minimal Invasive Surgery

The introduction of minimal invasive procedures brought about a revolutionary change in the field of surgery, significantly improving various aspects of the surgical process.

Operations that once necessitated weeks of recovery were now drastically reduced. Some of the notable benefits include:

Minimized bleeding during surgery.
Utilization of very small incisions.
Faster postoperative recovery.
Reduced pain for patients.
Less scarring after surgery.
Shorter hospital stays for patients.
High Precision & Accuracy

Types of Laparoscopic Surgery

There are two types of laparoscopic surgeries

Diagnostic Laparoscopy

Diagnostic laparoscopy is a minimally invasive technique used to diagnose intra-abdominal diseases by directly inspecting the organs within the abdomen. This procedure not only facilitates the acquisition of tissue biopsies and cultures but also enables various therapeutic interventions. Additionally, exploratory laparoscopy can include laparoscopic ultrasonography to evaluate organs that cannot be directly visualized during the procedure. It is a day care procedure and patient can go back home same day.

Operative Laparoscopic Surgery

Operative laparoscopic surgery involves the use of a laparoscope to perform a full surgical procedure. Nowadays, numerous common surgeries can be carried out using this minimally invasive approach. Your suitability for laparoscopic surgery depends on the complexity of your condition. Nonetheless, laparoscopic surgery is increasingly becoming the preferred option for a wide range of common operations due to its cost-saving advantages and better patient outcomes.

Gynecological Surgeries

Laparoscopic & Robotic Surgery is most common technique to address gynecological problems. With the help of Minimal Invasive surgical technique surgeons are performing many complex issues with ease.

Surgeries which are being performed by our gynecologist in routine are:

  • Removal of cysts, fibroids, stones, and polyps.
  • Extraction of small tumors.
  • Faster postoperative recovery.
  • Performing biopsies.
  • Tubal ligation and reversal procedures.
  • Removal of ectopic pregnancies.
  • Surgery for endometriosis.
  • Urethral and vaginal reconstruction surgeries.

Other Surgeries

Other than gynecological surgeries there are many surgeries that can be performed in abdomen through laparoscopic surgeries. The list of surgeries is very long but most common surgeries are mentioned below:

  • Orchiopexy (surgery to correct the position of the testicle).
  • Rectopexy (repair of rectal prolapse).
  • Hernia repair surgery.
  • Colectomy (bowel resection surgery).
  • Gastric bypass surgery.
  • Cystectomy (removal of the bladder).
  • Nephrectomy (removal of the kidney).
  • Splenectomy (removal of the spleen).
  • Liver resection
  • Prostatectomy (removal of the prostate gland).
  • Adrenalectomy (removal of the adrenal gland).
  • Gastrectomy (removal of the stomach).
  • Esophageal anti-reflux surgery (fundoplication).
  • Cholecystectomy (removal of the gallbladder) for gallstones.
  • Appendectomy (removal of the appendix) for appendicitis.
  • Abdominoperineal resection (removal of the rectum).
  • Radical nephroureterectomy (for transitional cell cancer).
  • Whipple procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy) for pancreatic cancer.

Is Minimal Invasive Surgery Safe?

Minimal Invasive surgery is considered to be as safe as open surgery, and in certain cases, it even reduces certain risks. The smaller incisions associated with laparoscopic procedures decrease the chances of infection, blood loss, and postoperative complications like wound separation and incisional hernia.

By minimizing direct contact between the surgeon and patient, laparoscopic surgery lowers the risk of germ transmission. Additionally, it shortens the recovery time, reducing the potential hazards of prolonged bed rest, such as the formation of blood clots.
