What is laparoscopic GI surgery?
Laparoscopic surgery, also called keyhole or minimally invasive surgery, uses a small high-definition camera (laparoscope) and slender instruments inserted through incisions of just 5–10 mm. The result: significantly less pain after surgery, a shorter hospital stay, minimal scarring, and a faster return to normal life.
Procedures performed
Gallbladder surgery
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy for gallstones and chronic cholecystitis: the gold standard, performed through 3–4 small incisions with same-day or next-day discharge.
Laparoscopic hernia repair
Inguinal, umbilical, incisional, and ventral hernia repair using mesh reinforcement with laparoscopic precision.
Anti-reflux surgery (GERD)
Laparoscopic fundoplication: a highly effective, long-term solution for patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) who do not respond adequately to medication.
Laparoscopic appendectomy
Safe, efficient removal of the inflamed appendix through keyhole access, reducing risk and recovery time versus open appendectomy.
IBD surgery
Laparoscopic bowel resection for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, preserving as much healthy bowel as possible.
Diagnostic laparoscopy
When imaging tests are inconclusive, a diagnostic laparoscopy provides direct visual inspection of the abdominal cavity with minimal patient discomfort.
Benefits of laparoscopic surgery
