Laparoscopic Urology Surgery
Laparoscopic surgery and hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery (HALS) are “minimally invasive” procedures commonly used to treat diseases of the urinary tract. Unlike traditional surgery on the intestines or any other organs of the abdomen where a long incision down the center of the abdomen is required at times, laparoscopic surgery requires only small “keyhole” incisions on the abdomen. In case of hand-assisted surgery, in addition to keyhole, a 3-4 inch incision is also used to allow the surgeons hand to gain access into the abdominal cavity for further manipulation/operative intervention. As a result, the person undergoing these laparoscopic procedures may experience less pain and scarring after surgery, and a more rapid recovery.
It is a surgical procedure that employs fiber-optic instruments to inspect and operate on the organs inside the abdomen or the pelvic cavities.During laparoscopy, an instrument called a laparoscope is inserted into the abdomen through a very small incision in the abdominal wall. A laparoscope is a long, thin tube with a high-intensity light and a fibre-optic camera on the end which transmit images to an external video monitor and with the help of this visual assistance the operating surgeon completes his/her procedure, even the most difficult surgical interventions successfully with ease.

SOME OF BENEFITS OF LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY
Lower risk of bleeding. Laparoscopic surgery can be a good option for men who take medication to thin their blood or who have a bleeding disorder that doesn't allow their blood to clot normally.
Quicker recovery
