Through tiny (less than one centimetre) cuts, short, narrow tubes called trocars are inserted into the abdomen during laparoscopic surgery. Long and slender instruments are introduced through these trochees. The Laparoscopic surgeon used these tools to see inside of you to cut, suture, and manipulate tissue.
The abdominal and pelvic regions are treated via laparoscopic surgery. Because the physician makes two to four tiny incisions in your abdomen or pelvis, usually no more than a half-inch, it is commonly referred to as “keyhole surgery.” Next, they will implant a light video camera and specific tools into your body using flexible tubes.
Procedure
- You might require imaging tests as well as blood and urine testing before your laparoscopy. In order to receive fluids, painkillers, and anaesthesia throughout the treatment. After a urinary tube is implanted, an antibiotic solution will be applied to your skin.
- To start the surgery, the surgeon makes a small cut in the patient’s tummy so he can insert the tubes, camera, and required instruments in the stomach.
- The physician can insert the surgical instrument and the camera through a skin cut. Although there may be reduced scarring, your surgeon will have more difficulty because of how closely placed out the devices are.
- At the time of laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon injects carbon dioxide into the patient so that he can see the abdominal organs properly. Lastly, your physician can insert a camera and instruments through the tubes, allowing them to finish the operation under the guidance of visuals displayed on a video monitor.
Risks:
- Bleeding and possibly needing an infection from a blood transfusion.
- A hernia
- A risk of harm to internal organs, including blood vessels, the stomach, colon, and bladder.
- Anaesthesia-related adverse effects, inflammation, or infection in the abdomen.
- Clots of blood.
- Electrical burns can result from the electrodes used during surgery leaking current into the surrounding tissue.
- Insufflations of cold and dry gas are released during surgery, which can cause hypothermia.
Recovery from laparoscopic surgery
Following laparoscopic surgery, you should rest for a few days, at least after returning home. You need to do the following actions:
- After surgery, avoid drinking alcohol for at least 24 hours.
- You must take care of the cuts; keep them dry and clean.
- Strictly Follow the bathing instructions provided by your physician.
- The morning following the procedure, you can take off the bandage.
- If there’s paste on your cuts, let it stay there until it comes off. After a shower.
- If your urine (pee) appears green, don’t worry. Your surgeon may have checked to see
- It can take several days for you to be able to poop regularly.
