Minimal access Surgery: No more fear of stitches

Minimal access Surgery: No more fear of stitches

Now no need to fear of operations and stitches. Minimal access Surgery will help you out.

Minimal access surgery is one of the most useful innovation in surgical methods.

Minimal access therapy comprises minimal access surgery, interventional flexible endoscopy, and percutaneous interventional radiology.The main advantage is reduced trauma of access, which allows more rapid recovery. Imaging systems which allow surgeons to look down on the operating field help overcome mapping problems and improve performance. New instruments are being developed that give surgeons greater freedom of movement. Operating theatres need to be specially designed to cope with the new equipment.

The Division of General Surgery is dedicated to performing surgical procedures using minimal access techniques whenever possible, to avoid the risk and fast recovery so that patience can also enjoy their operations without any fear.

Procedure of Minimal access Surgery

In this type of surgery, one or more small incisions (surgical cuts) are used. The surgeon passes a telescope with video camera through a small incision (usually only 1/4" long) into a body cavity. The surgeon then views the surgery on a TV monitor. Surgical instruments are then passed through other similar little incisions. The surgeon examines and operates on the area in question by viewing magnified images on a television. When the telescope is used to operate on the abdomen, the procedure is called laparoscopy. When used in the chest, the procedure is called thoracoscopy, and when used in a joint, it is called arthroscopy.

Advantages of Minimal Access Surgery

The name itself suggests the befefits of this type of surgery.

1. Unlike to open surgeries, in this type of surgery due to reduced trauma of access, no more cuts and stiches, so risk is low and recovery speed is more. So this type of surgery is also called as key-hole surgery or no scars surgery.

2. This causes less pain due to small incisions (surgical cuts). Yes, its a painless surgery comparatively.

3. No ugly scars of big wounds and stiches, so it is also called as scarless or stichless surgery.

4. Operative time is longer, but hospitalization time is shorter. So patients can get discharge earlier.

5. It reduces the incidence of post-surgical complications, such as adhesions.
