Laparoscopy – Minimally Invasive by Dr. Raman Narang
1. What is laparoscopy?
Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure using a small camera (laparoscope) inserted through tiny incisions in the abdomen to view and treat conditions inside the abdomen and pelvis.
2. What are the benefits of laparoscopic surgery?
Benefits include smaller incisions, less pain and bleeding, reduced scarring, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
3. How do I prepare for laparoscopy?
You will be advised to fast for several hours before surgery, stop certain medications if instructed, and arrange for someone to accompany you due to sedation.
4. How long does the laparoscopic procedure take?
Most diagnostic laparoscopies take about 30 minutes to an hour; complex surgeries may take longer depending on the condition treated.
5. What should I expect after laparoscopy?
Some pain, swelling, or bruising near incision sites is common. Shoulder pain from the gas used during surgery is possible but temporary. Your care team will provide pain management and recovery instructions.
6. When can I return to normal activities?
Most patients resume light activities within a week but should avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for at least two weeks. Your surgeon will provide personalized advice.
