Minimally invasive surgery, most commonly known as laparoscopy or key hole surgery, is a procedure used to look into he abdomen. A thin telescope is passed into the abdomen through a small cut in the skin. Endometriosis, fibroids and polyps can all be diagnosed using laparoscopy as well as treatment. Laparoscopy can help slow down growth of endometrial tissue and improve fertility to prevent endometriosis from returning. A laparoscopic myomectomy can be done to remove fibroids, the procedure is quick while leaving only 4 small scars where the instruments are inserted into the abdomen. It allows a quick recovery, shorter hospital stay, and les pain afterwards, and quick recovery.
