Laparoscopy

 

• Laparoscopy - A one day surgical procedure in which the doctor uses a narrow fiber-optic camera inserted through an incision near your navel to look for problems and fix them. He might make 1 - 3 more small incisions to insert other needed instruments that will be needed depending on the operation. The doctor can see the entire abdominal cavity on a screen. Laparoscopy is mostly used for (adhesions, endometriosis, cysts, blocked or damaged tubes, and ectopic pregnancy...). The patient can leave the hospital 4 - 12 hours later. Most of the patients can continue their work the next day after the Laparoscopy.
