Overview

Minimal Access/Laparoscopic Surgery is a surgical technique which involves small (keyhole) incisions instead of large cuts. The laparoscopic surgeon introduces a telescope with a video camera through this incision into the body cavity and operates by viewing the internal parts on a TV monitor. In traditional open surgery, the surgeon is unable to see directly into the patient without a large incision. The video camera efficiently becomes a surgeon’s eyes in minimal access surgery, since to perform the procedure; the surgeon uses the image from the video camera placed inside the patient’s body. When the abdomen is operated using a telescope, the procedure is called laparoscopy. On the other hand, when used in a joint, it is called arthroscopy, and when used in the chest, the procedure is called thoracoscopy.

This minimal access surgery helps in early recovery of patients as they are usually walking around in a few hours after the surgery and can resume their daily activities in no time. Laparoscopic surgery causes minimal pain and has excellent cosmetic results. When compared to traditional open surgery, in laparoscopic or minimal access surgery patients experience less pain, less scarring and have a shorter recovery time. Minimal access surgery can successfully treat thyroid and parathyroid, hernia, appendix, anorectal conditions, diseases of gastrointestinal tract, gall bladder stones and certain clinical conditions involving pancreas, adrenal glands, spleen, kidneys and the liver.

Laparoscopic / Minimal Access Surgery: Condition & Treatments

Anorectal Conditions

Anorectal refers to conditions related to the anus or rectum. These conditions are mainly caused due to some sort of overgrowth or abnormal growth of tissues in the anus and rectum region. While discussing these issues might be embarrassing, living with them can be painful. The common anorectal problems are: Anal Fistula Piles Fissures Prolapse

Appendix Surgery

Appendix is a small worm like structure attached to the cecum, the beginning of the colon, on the lower right side of abdomen. During first few years of life, appendix functions as part of the immune system, but after that it does not have any known function. Sudden inflammation of appendix is known as Appendicitis and if you are able to recognize its symptoms, you can prevent serious appendicitis complications from occurring. The most serious complication of appendicitis is an infection of the lining of your abdominal cavity (peritonitis). This may occur if your appendix ruptures (perforates) and the contents of your intestines and infectious organisms invade the peritoneal cavity. Peritonitis is a medical emergency requiring immediate appendix treatment via surgery.

Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral palsy is a condition that affects an individual's muscle tone, movement and posture. It is a group of disorders caused by injury to an immature, developing brain before birth. Its symptoms become apparent during infancy and preschool years. People with cerebral palsy have difficulty swallowing, eye-muscle coordination, and involuntary movements. They often have a reduced range of motion at the joints caused by muscle stiffness. The cause of the development of cerebral palsy and its effect on various body functions varies greatly. Some people can walk, while others require assistance. Some may have intellectual disabilities, while others may not. People with cerebral palsy may also have epilepsy, blindness, or deafness. It is crucial to note that cerebral palsy is a lifelong disorder. This condition has no cure. Treatment helps manage symptoms and improve function.

Gall Bladder Surgery

Gallbladder Surgery or cholecystectomy is a surgical procedure performed to remove the gallbladder. It is usually performed when hard pigments called gallstones form in the gallbladder, causing pain and discomfort. The gallbladder is a small bag, roughly the shape and size of a pear that sits underneath the liver, on the right side of the abdomen. Its main purpose is to store and concentrate bile produced by the liver. Bile is released from the gallbladder after eating, aiding digestion. Bile travels through common bile ducts (CBD) into the small intestine.

Hernia

A hernia is a condition where the intestine, other organs, or fatty tissue pushes through a weakened area in the muscles or connective tissue. While hernias can develop in different parts of the body, such as the abdomen, belly button, or upper thigh/groin area, they are most commonly seen in the groin region. Some hernias may be present at birth, while others develop later in life. Although hernias can be asymptomatic, they can also cause mild to severe pain. Surgery is the only way to cure a hernia, as it does not resolve on its own.

Hiatal Hernia

A hiatal hernia is a type of hernia that occurs when the upper part of the stomach bulges up into the chest through an opening in the diaphragm, a large muscle that helps to breathe. The diaphragm is situated in between the abdomen and chest. The muscle has a small opening known as hiatus, where the oesophagus and stomach joins.In the case of a hiatal hernia, a small portion of the stomach bulges through this opening and enter the chest. In most cases, the hiatal hernia is small and usually doesn’t cause any symptoms or complications. However, if the hiatal hernia is more prominent in size, it may cause some symptoms like heartburn.

Hydatid Disease

Hydatid disease is a parasitic infestation caused by a tapeworm. The genus responsible for the disease is called Echinococcus. The tapeworm has an outer layer derived from the host, an intermediate laminated layer, and an inner germinal layer. The hydatid cysts can be single or multiple and can become calcified. They may be asymptomatic but present with abdominal pain or a mass. A rupture or secondary infection of cysts can occur along with associated biliary obstruction. All patients should be treated with medicines before administering any definitive therapy. Surgical removal of the intact cyst is the preferred treatment when there is communication between the cyst and the biliary system.

Know More

Inguinal Hernia

Inguinal hernia, also known as groin hernia, forms when the intestines or fat from the abdomen protrude through the lower abdominal wall into the groin. The condition can occur in the right or left inguinal canal. An inguinal hernia forms a sac-like structure around the hernia when it bulges through the abdominal wall. The condition occurs more in men as compared to women. 

Know More

Intestinal Obstruction

A minimally invasive procedure is commonly used to treat diseases of gastrointestinal tract. Unlike traditional surgery of intestines where a long incision down the center of the abdomen is required, laparoscopic surgery requires only small "keyhole" incisions in the abdomen. The common conditions that may require surgery of small intestine are: Strictures Benign tumors Meckel's Diverticulum

Know More

Pyelonephritis

Kidney infection or pyelonephritis is a type of urinary tract infection (UTI) that generally originates in the urethra or bladder and progresses to either one or both kidneys. A kidney infection requires immediate medical care. If the kidney infection is not treated properly, it can permanently damage the kidneys, and the bacteria can move towards the bloodstream and cause a life-threatening infection. Acute pyelonephritis is a sudden and severe kind of kidney infection that causes the kidneys to enlarge and can even permanently impair them. When repeated or persistent infection occurs, the condition is called chronic pyelonephritis. However this chronic form is rare, but it happens more often in children or people with urinary obstructions.

Solid organ Surgery

Solid organs that include the adrenal glands, spleen, kidneys, pancreas, and liver secrete juices, and control the amount and distribution of food and water that are responsible for human body to survive. To remove cancer or tumors in the organs, surgeons prefer minimally invasive Laparoscopic surgeries over open surgeries as the former causes minimal pain and reduces the burden of treatment.

Thyroid and Parathyroid Glands

The thyroid is a small (butterfly-shaped) gland. It is located at the lower part of the neck. Its function is to secrete hormones. The thyroid gland is regulated by control centres in the brain - hypothalamus and pituitary gland. The hypothalamus in our brain releases a thyrotropin-releasing hormone or (TRH). The release of thyrotropin-releasing hormone tells the pituitary gland to release thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). This thyroid-stimulating hormone, circulating in your bloodstream, is what tells the thyroid gland to make thyroid hormones and release them into the bloodstream. The main hormones that are released by the thyroid gland are triiodothyronine (abbreviated as T3) and thyroxine (abbreviated as T4). These are responsible for delivering energy to the cells of our body and are one of the main hormones to control the body's metabolism.
