Laparoscopy is the art of peering into abdominal cavities while performing surgeries. The most common surgeries being performed today are laparoscopic appendicectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy and laparoscopic hernia surgeries. Patients used to tolerate big incisions for lack of better options.Due to improved technology, patients can afford to undergo laparoscopic surgeries at almost the same cost as the conventional open surgeries.
The advantages of laparoscopic surgeries are that the scars are smaller, the pain after operations is less and patients can return to work faster.
The disadvantages include increased expenses because of the equipment and general anaesthesia.
