Advantages of laparoscopic surgery

  Laparoscopic surgery is a new surgical technique in which instruments are placed into the abdominal cavity through tiny incisions in the abdomen to examine, diagnose and treat intra-abdominal diseases through a television screen. Laparoscopic surgery is usually performed between 3 and 7 days after menstruation. The biggest advantage of this technology is that it is less traumatic and less disturbing to the patient’s body, which can make the patient suffer less and recover faster.  Laparoscopic surgery does not need to open the abdomen, and the abdominal wall is less traumatic because the incision is made through the muscle slit into the abdominal cavity without destroying the muscle layer, so there is mostly no postoperative incisional pain, and pain relief treatment is generally not needed. The chance of bleeding, infection and splitting of the incision after surgery is very small. Internal trauma is slight, and the laparoscopic image can be magnified 8-10 times, so small blood vessels and nerves can be seen clearly and are not easily mistakenly injured, and there is little intraoperative bleeding and almost no postoperative abdominal fluid.  The hospital stay after laparoscopic surgery is significantly shortened, generally 2-3 days after surgery can be discharged, and 3-5 days can resume normal life. Laparoscopic surgery is performed inside the body, and the surgery is performed in a completely closed state, so the chance of causing abdominal infection is much smaller than that of open surgery, and the postoperative period of antibiotics is also short, thus reducing the side effects caused by the application of antibiotics.  The gastrointestinal function of the patient recovers quickly after laparoscopic surgery. The patient can resume eating and get out of bed the day after surgery, which effectively reduces the amount and duration of postoperative infusion. It prevents postoperative intestinal adhesions, intestinal obstruction and pulmonary infection, deep vein thrombosis, urinary retention and other complications. The postoperative abdominal cosmetic effect of laparoscopic surgery is good. The size of the abdominal wall incision is usually 0.5-1.0 cm and is scattered with 2-4, with minimal post-healing scars. Therefore, patients who are ready to opt for laparoscopic surgery can visit the hospital after determining the time of laparoscopic surgery.
