Laparoscopy, also called laparoscopic surgery, is a form of minimally invasive surgery in which small incisions are used instead of the big ones as in open surgery. This surgical procedure uses a long thin camera known as a laparoscope to diagnose and treat a variety of illnesses and disorders of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. A laparoscope sends images from inside of your body to a monitor where the surgeon can see them.
