Open surgery is a traditional procedure in which a single incision, multiple inches long if not more, is made to access the abdomen. In contrast, laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgery that uses several incisions of one-quarter or less.
The branch of surgery that covers the main areas of surgical treatment. General surgeons treat diseases of the abdomen, breast, head and neck, blood vessels, and digestive tract. They also manage care of patients who have been injured or who have deformities or other conditions that need surgery.
Laparoscopic surgery, a minimally invasive technique, involves small incisions and a camera-guided instrument for various procedures. It generally leads to less pain, shorter hospital stays, and quicker recovery compared to open surgery. Specific treatments vary, from gallbladder removal to hernia repair, depending on the condition being addressed.
