Laparoscopic surgery is a surgical technique, when a telescopic rod lens, connectable to a video camera for observing the abdominal cavity, is inserted through 5mm~10mm trocar
to confirm lesions on TV monitor after injecting carbon dioxide into the abdomen and operations are performed through other 2 small incisions on the lower abdomen. There is also a single-port laparoscopy, which requires only a single small incision of 1~1.5cm.
Laparascopic surgery also called pelviscopic surgery and even the laser laparascopic surgery, because sometimes it uses the laser cautery. And there is a hysteroscopic surgery, in which operations are performed in uterus by inserting camera and surgical instruments through vagina, when lesions ate located in uterus.

Disadvantages of Laparascopic Surgery
- Laparascopic surgery is clearly advantageous versus an open procedure.
- However, the surgery will be impossible by failure of securing clear view when adhesions of small intestine or large intestine are severe and serious. In this case, an open procedure is unavoidable.
It doesn't mean that laparascopic surgery is always impossible when there is an adhesion.
It depends on the degree of adhesion.
