What is laparoscopic surgery?

summary

Laparoscopic surgery is actually a progress in the medical field, which can be applied in many operations. Two days ago, a classmate had an appendectomy operation. He said that the most advanced laparoscopic surgery was adopted, which was a minimally invasive surgery. It soon recovered, and there was no scar. He also gave me a detailed introduction to the specific operation method. Now I'd like to share her experience with you.

What is laparoscopic surgery?

First, the cold light source is used to provide illumination, the laparoscopic lens (3-10 mm in diameter) is inserted into the abdominal cavity, and the image captured by the laparoscopic lens is transmitted to the later stage signal processing system through the optical fiber through the digital camera technology, and displayed on the special monitor in real time.

Second: laparoscopic surgery mostly uses 2-4 hole operation method, one of which is opened on the human body's navel to avoid leaving long strip-shaped scars in the patient's abdominal cavity. After recovery, only 1-3 0.5-1cm linear scars are left in the abdominal cavity, which can be said to be the operation with small wound and small pain. Therefore, it is also called "keyhole" operation.

Third: then the doctor analyzes and judges the patient's condition through the images of different angles of the patient's organs displayed on the monitor screen, and carries out the operation with special laparoscopic instruments.

matters needing attention

The development of laparoscopic surgery, reduce the pain of patients, shorten the recovery period of patients, and relatively reduce the cost of patients, is a rapid development of surgery project in recent years.
