Laparoscopy has allowed surgeons to perform the same procedures as in traditional surgery, using small incisions instead of large abdominal incisions. Studies have shown major benefits to the patient in terms of reduced postoperative pain, reduce hospital stay, quicker return to normal physical activities, reducing complications and improved cosmesis.
