Interventions
Our State-of-the-Art Therapy Methods
Through tiny incisions, interior organs can be reached during laparoscopic surgery with the use of equipment and a tiny camera. During a lengthy incision procedure, the camera enables the surgeon to see the organs. Minimally invasive, or laparoscopic, surgery is linked to reduced pain and a quicker recovery period.
Minimally invasive surgery can have the following advantages:
- A brief hospital stay
- A speedy recovery
- Less scarring,
- Less blood loss
Even while minimally invasive surgery allows physicians more control and efficiently cuts down on time, not everyone is a good fit for it. Occasionally, open surgery is necessary because to a patient's age, physical condition, and surgical history. Other times, traditional open surgery gives physicians better access to the area that needs to be addressed.
