Laparoscopic Surgery for Endometriosis

Laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat this condition, where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside it, causing pain and other issues. During the surgery, a surgeon makes small incisions in the abdomen and inserts a thin tube with a camera (laparoscope) to see the affected areas. They can then remove or destroy the endometrial tissue using special instruments. This technique often results in less pain, quicker recovery, and smaller scars compared to traditional open surgery, making it a preferred option for many women dealing with endometriosis symptoms.
