Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic Urological Surgery
Traditional open surgery is performed through a large cut so that surgeon's instruments and hands can reach the surgical target safely. This inevitably leads to damage to muscles and nerves of the body wall and can lead to pain, discomfort and later complications such as hernias. Minimally invasive surgery is performed through tiny incisions instead of large opening using specialised telescopes and instruments. Because the incisions are small, there is less damage to the body than with open surgery and the risk of complications is minimised.
