Tips Of laparoscopic surgery 




Before we explain the basic principles of laparoscopic surgery, let’s understand what laparoscopic surgery is:
Invented by George Kelling in 1901, in 1901, uses several 0.5-1cm incisions along with a small camera to detect and treat any illness in the pelvic or the adnominal area.

Laparoscopy just minimizes the ACCESS/Skin incision! As far as steps are concerned, it is identical to Open surgery, fast recovery and painless surgery, and quick return to their daily routine work.

The following are broad suggestions for any Laparoscopic Abdominal Surgery, individual patients need to re-confirm with their Surgeons.

Do not insist on a Laparoscopic Surgery if your surgeon advices against it.

Stop Smoking atleast a month prior & a month after your surgery

Asthma/COPD, Hypertension, Diabetes etc are under strict control immediately prior to surgery. Post Surgery monitor Sugars & Blood pressure at home.
