Laparoscopic Surgery



Laparoscopic machine.


Minimally Invasive Surgeries, (MIS).
laparoscopic surgery, uses the latest technology. When performing MIS, the surgeon creates small, dime-sized incisions that allow the use of a miniature camera, or laparoscope, and specialized instruments to perform the procedure, so there is no need for a large, conventional incision. Smaller incisions mean less pain for our patients, along with a faster recovery.

This was a liver biopsy surgery. Instead of going in through a larger incision, this was the better and least painful choice.
