Laparotomy and Laparoscopy are surgical procedures used to examine the abdominal organs. Laparoscopy, being less invasive, involves small incisions and a camera to guide the surgery. Laparotomy may be performed for a more comprehensive exploration or when laparoscopy is not feasible.
Using advanced, minimally invasive technology, our surgeons make small incisions to insert a laparoscope, a thin tube with a camera at the tip, for visualization, diagnosis, or surgery within the abdomen, leading to precise treatments and vastly improved outcomes.
These procedures are effective for diagnosing causes of abdominal pain or abnormalities. They can treat a wide range of conditions including hernias, gallbladder stones, and appendix or ovarian issues, offering a targeted approach to abdominal surgery.
Patients experience significantly less discomfort, shorter hospital stays, and quicker recoveries. The precision of laparoscopic surgery often results in better outcomes and minimized risk of complications, enhancing the overall quality of life post-surgery.
Ideal candidates include individuals needing diagnostic examination or treatment for conditions affecting the abdominal and pelvic organs. We assess each patient's specific situation to recommend the best surgical approach, ensuring safety and efficacy.
Recovery varies depending on the individual and the specific procedure, but most people can return to normal activities within a week. Discomfort can often be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers, and it's important to follow your surgeon's advice on wound care and activity levels.
Yes, both Laparotomy and Laparoscopy can be used in the diagnosis, staging, and treatment of certain cancers. These procedures allow surgeons to remove tumors or take biopsy samples for further analysis, playing a crucial role in cancer care plans.
The best way to determine if you're a candidate for Laparoscopy is through a consultation with our surgeons. Generally, individuals in need of diagnostic or therapeutic interventions for abdominal or pelvic issues are suitable. Each patient's health and surgical needs are carefully evaluated to recommend the most appropriate and safe surgical approach.
