How is laparoscopic surgery performed?

These operations are performed with a special instrument, the laparoscope. The laparoscope is a long, thin device that is inserted into the abdomen through a small hole. A camera is attached to the back, and through this camera, surgeons can examine the patient's abdomen and pelvic organs on an electronic screen. If there is a problem; They perform the operation with additional instruments. In these instruments, it is inserted into the abdomen through small holes. Sometimes all instruments are inserted into the abdomen through a single hole. These are called "single hole" laparoscopic surgeries.

What are the benefits of laparoscopy?

Laparoscopy has many benefits. It provides less pain, shorter hospital stay and faster recovery compared to open surgery. Patients who undergo laparoscopy usually recover quickly. Small incisions allow faster healing. In addition, the risk of infection is low due to small incisions.
