Laparoscopic surgery is a minimal invasive
technique to perform various surgeries and diagnostic procedures. During
laparoscopy a tiny instrument called ‘Laparoscope’ is used, to reach the
abdomen of a patient. The laparoscope also has a tiny camera which gives a
clear picture of the inside thereby assisting a surgeon and also to conduct
correct diagnosis. During the procedure, a very small incision is made which is
healed very fast without harming the surrounding organs or area.
Laparoscopy procedure is recommended in
case of any health issue related to pelvic area or any part of abdomen and
lower abdomen. Doctors rely on laparoscopy procedure in case of problems like
Ectopic Pregnancy, Stones, Appendicitis, Endometriosis, Ovarian cyst and Pelvic
inflammatory disease.
Once a feared word, ‘Surgery’ nowadays have
become a common phenomenon with the advanced technique and quick healing. With
laparoscopic procedures, patients do not have to stay in hospital for days and
can get discharged on the day of the surgery or after a period of 1-2 days
only.
The laparoscopic surgery is quite effective
while performing procedures like:
·
Appendectomy
·
Cholecystectomy or removal of
gall bladder
·
Partial or full Proctocolectomy
(removal of intestine and rectum)
·
Vasectomy
·
Biopsy procedure
·
In treating endometriosis
·
In treating ectopic pregnancy
Almost every hospital in India has the
facility and technology to perform laparoscopic surgery in India. In fact,
people from abroad come to India for their laparoscopic procedures because of
the affordable cost and reliable technology.
Of course, it does. India in years has
evolved as a promising nation for providing advanced medical facilities. Doctors
in India have also contributed in various transforming and ground-breaking research
and inventions. Robotic laparoscopic has only taken the medical field in India
to the next level.
Robotic Laparoscopy is conducted by a
mechanical hand which holds the laparoscope and is controlled by a surgeon. The
surgeon controls the robot through a controller to administer the laparoscopic
procedure.
The machine in case of a robotic laparoscopy
is fully controlled by a surgeon therefore there is no scope of any error.
