What Is Laparoscopic Surgery?

Laparoscopic surgery (also known as “keyhole surgery” or “minimally invasive surgery”) is a modern surgical technique where operations are performed through tiny 5–10 mm incisions instead of large cuts used in open surgery.

A small camera called a laparoscope is inserted through one of the incisions, allowing the surgeon to clearly see the internal organs on a high-definition monitor. Special surgical instruments are used through the remaining incisions to perform the procedure with extreme precision.

Key Features of Laparoscopic Surgery

  • Very small incisions
  • Minimal blood loss
  • Faster recovery
  • Reduced postoperative pain
  • Minimal scarring
  • Lower risk of complications
  • Quick return to normal life

Laparoscopic techniques are now considered the gold standard for many urological surgeries due to their safety and effectiveness.
