video-assisted surgery

Video-assisted surgery is a minimally invasive technique where surgeons use small cameras called endoscopes to see inside the body. These cameras are inserted through tiny incisions, providing real-time images on a monitor. This approach allows for precise procedure execution with less pain, smaller scars, and quicker recovery compared to traditional open surgery. It’s commonly used in procedures like gallbladder removal, hernia repairs, and joint surgeries, enabling surgeons to operate with enhanced visualization while minimizing tissue damage. Overall, video-assisted surgery improves safety, accuracy, and patient outcomes through advanced imaging technology.
