As a trusted Bacoor hospital, MSMC provides coordinated surgical care for patients who need expert evaluation, procedure planning, and recovery support under one roof. 

What Is Laparoscopic Surgery?

Laparoscopic surgery, also called laparoscopy, is a surgical technique that uses a thin camera and small instruments inserted through tiny openings in the body. This allows the surgeon to view and treat internal organs without the larger incision used in traditional open surgery. 

In many cases, laparoscopic procedures are used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, especially when doctors need a clearer view of the abdomen or pelvis. Commonly treated conditions include gallstones, cholecystitis, appendicitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis.

01. Diagnostic Laparoscopy
