Laparoscopic Urological Surgery Programme
Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to diagnose and treat various urological conditions in men and women. Unlike traditional open surgery, laparoscopy uses small incisions and specialised instruments to access the surgical area. This leads to several benefits for patients, including:
- Reduced pain and scarring
- Shorter hospital stay
- Faster recovery time
