Laparoscopic Surgery for Appendix

 

The laparoscopic (minimally invasive) surgical technique involves making few tiny cuts in the abdomen and inserting a miniature camera and surgical instruments.

 As many as three or four incisions are made. The surgeon then removes the appendix with the instruments, so there is usually no need to make a large incision in the abdomen.
