• WHAT IS A LAPAROSCOPY

A Laparoscopy, also known as diagnostic
laparoscopy, is a surgical diagnostic procedure
used to examine the organs inside the abdomen, as
well as other closed spaces, such as the knees.
Its a low-risk, minimally invasive procedure
that requires only small incisions. When an
abdominal laparoscopy is performed, a doctor uses
an instrument called a laparoscope to look at the
abdominal organs. A laparoscope is a long, thin
tube with a high-intensity light and a
high-resolution camera at the front.

• PURPOSE

• Laparoscopy can be utilized to pinpoint and
  determine the root of pelvic and abdominal
  discomfort. It's typically performed when
  non-invasive methods fail to provide a diagnosis.
• In many instances, abdominal issues can be
  identified using imaging techniques like
• Ultrasound makes use of high-frequency sound
  waves in order to create pictures of the body
• CT scan It is a collection of X-rays that take
  cross-sectional pictures of the human body
• An MRI scan that uses radio waves and magnets to
  create pictures of the body
• Laparoscopy can be performed in cases where these
  tests do not give enough information or insights
  for making a diagnosis. It could be utilized to
  collect an incision or sample of tissue from an
  organ within the abdomen.

• RISKS OF LAPAROCASY

• PREPARATION

Tell your doctor about any prescription or
over-the-counter medications youre taking. Your
doctor will tell you how they should be used
before and after the procedure.

• Anticoagulants, such as blood thinners
• Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs),
  including aspirin (Bufferin) or ibuprofen (Advil,
  Motrin IB)
• Other medications that affect blood clotting
• Herbal or dietary supplements
• Vitamin K

• PROCEDURE

Youll likely be given general anesthesia for
this type of surgery. This means that youll
sleep through the procedure and typically wont
feel any pain. To achieve general anesthesia, an
intravenous (IV) line is inserted in one of your
veins. Through the IV, your anesthesiologist can
give you special medications and well as provide
hydration with fluids. Once your abdomen is
inflated, the surgeon inserts the laparoscope
through the incision. The camera attached to the
laparoscope displays the images on a screen,
allowing your organs to be viewed in
real-time. The number and size of incisions
depend upon what specific diseases your surgeon
is attempting to confirm or rule out. Generally,
you get from one to four incisions that are each
between 1 and 2 centimeters in length. These
incisions allow other instruments to be inserted.
