Fortis La Femme has a panel of senior & established Laparoscopic & General Surgeons who perform surgeries for women.

General surgery deals with surgical treatment of abdominal organs e.g. intestines, esophagus, stomach, colon, liver, gall bladder and bile ducts and hernia.

Laparoscopic Surgery is a technique, which allows the surgeon to perform the operation through multiple very small incisions with the aid of a TV video camera and special instruments. Laparoscopic Surgery/Minimally invasive surgery is a new approach where the same operations are performed using specialized instruments designed to fit into the body through several tiny punctures instead of one large incision. Instead of looking directly at the part of the body being treated, the physician monitors the procedure via a special video camera system called a laparoscope inserted through one of the small punctures. This can actually allow better visualization of the operative site for more precise work. By eliminating the large incision and extensive dissections, much of the pain of recovery can also be reduced.

•  Gastrointestinal & General Surgery
