Most abdominal surgery can be performed Laparoscopically (keyhole surgery). This approach carries significant advantages such as decreased time to recovery due to fewer disturbances to patient’s homeostasis and less cosmetic and functional disturbance with avoidance of large abdominal incisions.

• Laparoscopic Appendicectomy – One of the most common operations performed by General Surgeons, mostly done in acute situation, but occasionally performed for chronic appendicitis as well.
• Laparoscopic Hernia Repair – is the new standard of care in hernia surgery.

• Laparoscopic Bowel Resection – a major operation, where the impact of the procedure can be lessened, by performing most of the operation keyhole.
• Laparoscopic Lymph Node Biopsy – usually a diagnostic procedure where a lymph node needs to be sampled to provide definite treatment for another condition.
