Indications for laparoscopic surgery

  Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive medical surgical technique that uses a number of technologies such as optics, computers, ultrasound, mechanical and electrical instruments. In short, laparoscopic surgery involves making 3-4 small holes of 0.5-1 cm in diameter in the patient’s abdominal wall and inserting a lens connected to a miniature camera, which transmits the observed contents to a TV screen where the operator can clearly observe the situation inside the abdominal cavity and complete the surgery with microsurgical instruments.  The lens of the laparoscope can be magnified 8-10 times, and the surgical field is clearer than that of open surgery. The surgical wound is smaller, the pain is light, bleeding is less, the postoperative recovery is fast, and the incidence of postoperative intestinal adhesions and other complications is low.  I.
