Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic Spay
Laparoscopic surgery, also called minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is a modern surgical technique in which operations in the abdomen are performed through small incisions (usually 0.5 – 1.5 cm) as opposed to the larger incisions needed in traditional surgery. A rigid laparoscope is attached to a camera and light source, and inserted to view the operative field. The abdomen is insufflated (blown up like a balloon) with carbon dioxide gas, elevating the abdominal wall above the internal organs to create a working and viewing space.
Laparoscopic surgery has the following advantages to traditional surgery:
- • Decreased pain
- • Smaller incisions
- • Decreased hemorrhaging
- • Shorter recovery time
