Laparoscopy
Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure, which examines the internal organs of the abdomen and it is known as diagnostic laparoscopy. In this procedure, only small incisions are required, and it's low-risk.
The abdominal organs are viewed with the help of a laparoscope during laparoscopy. Laparoscopic instruments are long, thin tubes with a bright light and a high-definition camera at their ends. Incisions are made in the abdominal wall to insert the instruments. Video images are sent to a monitor as the camera moves along.
With laparoscopic surgery, your doctor can see inside your body in real-time without opening it up. The procedure can also enable your doctor to take a biopsy sample.
Surgical expertise at BirthRight Hospitals is minimally invasive and laparoscopic. As a leader in laparoscopic procedures, our surgeons adopt the latest technologies so patients have a comfortable, painless, and precise experience. The doctors at BirthRight Hospitals' with their multidisciplinary approach determine the cause of the conditions and devise suitable
methods ensuring the safety of the patients.
What is the purpose of Laparoscopy?
To identify and treat pelvic or abdominal pathology, laparoscopic procedures are often performed. The procedure is usually used when non-invasive methods fail to diagnose a condition.
During a laparoscopy, very rarely one may experience risks, such as experiencing bleeding, infection, and damage to your organs. You should keep an eye out for signs of infection after your procedure. Call your doctor immediately if you experience:
- Fevers
- Abdominal ache
- Chills
- Redness, Swelling, Bleeding, Or Drainage where incisions were made
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Persistent Cough
- Shortness Of Breath
- Inability To Urinate
- Light-Headedness
While laparoscopy is relatively safe, it comes with a small chance of organ damage. The puncture of an organ may lead to the release of blood and other fluids. The damage needs to be repaired by another surgery.
The following risks are less common:
- Anesthesia-related complications.
- An infection of the abdominal wall.
- Your pelvis, legs, or lungs can be affected by a blood clot.
Occasionally, your surgeon may believe that a minimally invasive technique is not worth the risks associated with laparoscopy. Prior abdominal procedures are more likely to cause this problem since adhesions can form between abdominal structures when a patient has had previous abdominal surgery. It takes much longer and is more likely to cause organ injury when performing laparoscopy with adhesions.
What is the procedure for laparoscopy?
Usually, laparoscopic procedures are performed as day- care procedure(It means your surgery will take place the same day, so you can leave the same day) or inpatient procedure..
For this type of surgery, general anesthesia is likely to be administered. In other words, you won't feel any pain during the procedure and can sleep through it. A vein in your arm is inserted with an intravenous line to achieve general anesthesia. In addition to administering fluids and giving medications via the IV, your anesthesiologist can provide hydration.
A laparoscopic procedure involves a surgeon making a small incision below your belly button and inserting a small tube called a cannula. With the help of the cannula, carbon dioxide gas is inflated in your abdomen. That allows your physician to better examine your abdomen.
An incision is made through which the laparoscope is inserted once the abdomen has been inflated. Your organs can be viewed in real-time on the screen, thanks to the camera attached to the laparoscope.
According to your surgeon, the number and size of incisions will depend on the specific disease being confirmed or ruled out. A typical procedure involves between one and four incisions, each between 0.5 cms -1cms long. Other instruments are then inserted through these incision.
The instruments are removed following the procedure. Following that, an incision is usually tapped up or occasionally stitched . If necessary, bandages may be applied.
