What is Laparoscopy?

Laparoscopy is A type of surgery in which small incisions are made in the abdominal wall through which a laparoscope and other instruments can be placed to permit structures within the abdomen and pelvis to be seen. A variety of probes or other instruments can also be pushed through these small incisions in the skin.

A laparoscopy, also known as a diagnostic laparoscopy, is a surgical diagnostic procedure used to examine the organs inside the abdomen, as well as other closed spaces, such as the knees. It’s a low risk, minimally invasive procedure that requires only small incisions.
