Over the last decade, major advances in instrumentation, technology and surgical skills have led to improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of most gynaecological conditions.
Laparoscopic surgery , frequently referred to as key-hole surgery, is arguably one of these most significant surgical advances delivering the benefits of small incisions, quicker recovery, reduced post-operative pain, less risk of adhesion formation, and earlier resumption of normal activities when compared to open surgery.
In experienced hands, laparoscopic surgery is a safe alternative to open surgery suitable for the treatment of most gynaecological conditions.
