Gynecological laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that enables the surgeon to operate without creating a major incision. A laparoscope is a narrow, illuminated tube with a camera on the end that is introduced into the belly via a tiny incision. The camera transmits pictures of the interior of the body to a TV display in the operating room, enabling the surgeon to see and operate on the pelvic organs without the need for a large incision.
