To Study the Complications of Laparoscopic Surgery Specific to Abdominal Procedures.

Abstract

Scar less surgery is the Holy Grail of surgery and the main aim of minimal access surgery was the reduction of scars and thereby pain and suffering of patients. The choice of therapeutic possibilities has increased considerably since the development of minimally invasive procedures. The advantages of this approach include decreased scarring, decreased incisional pain, shorter hospitalization, and faster functional recovery. Laparoscopy has been shown to be a great surgical improvement compared to laparotomy [1]. Blood loss reduction, smaller scars, less pain, and shorter hospital stays are few advantages of laparoscopy over laparotomy. However Laparoscopy has been associated with complications including physiologic changes during peritoneal insufflation, access-related complications, subcutaneous emphysema (SE), pneumothorax, gas embolism, port site hernias, as well as injuries to diaphragm, blood vessels, Omentum, viscera, and bladder etc. This study was conducted in order to observe the complications and associated risk factors of laparoscopic surgery specific to abdominal procedures. Aim:-1. Incidence of the complications in laparoscopic surgery specific to abdominal procedures 2. To evaluate factors influencing the rate of complications
