Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique that uses small incisions and a camera (laparoscope) to diagnose and treat various conditions within the abdomen and pelvis.
Conditions:
- Laparoscopic surgery for both benign and malignant (cancerous) conditions of the urinary tract
- Such as kidney cancer, cancer of the ureter and renal pelvis, and prostate cancer.
- Benign disease such as kidney cysts, large renal or ureteric stones, inguinal hernia surgery.
Benefits of Laparoscopic Surgery
Laparoscopic cancer surgery offers several advantages, including:
- Minimal Scarring: Smaller incisions result in less scarring, which can improve the cosmetic outcome and reduce discomfort.
- Faster Recovery: Patients often experience a faster recovery and shorter hospital stays.
- Less Pain: Laparoscopic surgery is associated with reduced postoperative pain.
- Lower Infection Risk: Smaller incisions can lead to a reduced risk of infection.
The Laparoscopic Cancer Surgery Procedure
The procedure involves the insertion of a laparoscope, a thin tube with a camera, and surgical instruments through small incisions. This allows the surgeon to visualize and treat the cancer with precision. The specifics of the procedure depend on the type and stage of cancer.
