Minimally invasive surgical procedures

Minimally invasive surgical procedures are techniques that use small incisions, specialized instruments, and advanced imaging technology to perform surgeries with less damage to the body. Unlike traditional surgery, which often requires larger cuts, these procedures typically result in less pain, quicker recovery times, and reduced scarring. Common examples include laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder removal and robotic-assisted surgeries. Patients can often return to their normal activities sooner than with conventional surgery, making minimally invasive techniques a preferred choice for many medical conditions.
