Laparoscopic surgery
Laparoscopic surgery has revolutionized surgery in recent years. The surgical objectives are achieved and at the same time the major inconveniences of classic surgery are reduced with smaller incisions and less pain. Less bleeding, fewer complications and faster return to normal life.
Main advantages
- Reduction in immediate and long-term postoperative pain since large incisions are replaced by small incisions, many of which do not even require closure with stitches.
- Lower risk of infection. Surgical wounds are smaller so they heal quickly and rarely present complications.
- Better aesthetics as they are small incisions.
- Lower bleeding rate during the intervention.
- Quick recovery. All series show that laparoscopy allows for shorter postoperative periods in the hospital and later, at home, people recover faster.
Application of laparoscopy in urology
- Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (removal of the prostate).
- Laparoscopic partial or radical nephrectomy (partial or total removal of the kidney).
- Laparoscopic radical cystectomy (bladder removal).
- Laparoscopic pyeloplasty for ureteral stricture.
- Laparoscopic adrenalectomy (removal of the adrenal or adrenal gland).
- Laparoscopic reconstructive surgery.
