This is a minimal access surgery of the abdomen in which intraabdominal surgical pathologies are dealt with. A rigid endoscope known as a laparoscope is introduced into the peritoneal cavity through a small opening made in the abdominal wall. Carbon dioxide gas is introduced inside to inflate the peritoneal cavity to enable visualization of the intraabdominal contents. Further ports are made as required to enable the introduction of the working instruments and the surgery is carried out.
