Laparoscopic surgery

Laparoscopic surgery

What is Laparoscopic surgery

It is a minimally invasive, modern technology-based surgery that helps a surgery visualize and operate on the insides of a patient’s abdomen without having to make huge incisions or cuts. A small tube with a camera attached to its end is passed through a puncture and the internal organs are visualized through a video monitor attached. Due to its procedure, it is also known as a ‘key-hole’ surgery. Laparoscopy is used in many fields from gynecology to gastroenterology and urology. It gives the patients a quick and more precise treatment while reducing their hospital time and post-operative complications.

What is Trauma surgery

Trauma surgery is the interventional, open surgical procedure done to treat injuries, fractures,
burns, ulcers, herniation, crush injuries, and more in an acute setting using both operative and non-
operative management techniques. The injuries can be due to heavy impact forces, road traffic
accidents, falls or object crushes, sports injuries, and more. Trauma surgery also has knowledge of
the adjacent musculoskeletal structures and vital structures like nerves and arteries because
whenever an injury occurs, it is most likely to involve one or the other adjacent structures. The
injuries may be life-threatening too. Trauma surgeons are trained in immediate and complete
management of the injury.
