What is Laparoscopic Surgery?
Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgical method that allows the abdominal and pelvic organs to be operated on through small incisions. Compared to traditional open surgeries, it offers advantages such as less pain, short recovery time and less hospitalization. At Metropol Health Group, laparoscopic surgery is performed safely with our expert staff and advanced technological infrastructure.
How is it done?
- The surgery is performed through several small incisions, usually 0.5-1 cm in size, made in the abdomen.
- Through the incisions, a thin camera called a laparoscope and special surgical instruments are inserted into the abdominal cavity.
- The camera transmits clear images of the organs inside the abdomen to the monitor. The surgeon performs the procedure precisely with the help of these images.
- This is a minimally invasive technique that causes less damage to organs and tissues.
In which cases is it applied?
Laparoscopic surgery is an effective way to treat many diseases and conditions. These include:
- Gall Bladder Problems: Stones and inflammation
- Appendicitis: Inflammation of the appendix
- Stomach and Intestinal Diseases: Ulcers, intestinal obstructions
- Cysts and Tumors: Removal of benign and malignant masses
