Laparoscopic GI Oncosurgery
The word "laparoscopy" means to look inside with a special camera or scope. Surgery done with the aid of these cameras is known as laparoscopic, keyhole, porthole, or minimally invasive surgery.
Laparoscopic Cancer Surgery is as safe as traditional open surgery. At the beginning of a laparoscopic operation the laparoscope is inserted through a small incision near the belly button (umbilicus).
Laparoscopy can shorten your hospital stay to 1 or 2 days. About 50% of men are discharged one day after surgery. (The length of stay depends on how quickly you recover and the extent of the surgery.)
It involves lesser trauma to the body, faster return to the work, faster return to the normal activities, and less amount of pain to the body.
