Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic Surgery

Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic Surgical Procedures

Thanks to amazing advances in medicine, patients now have the option to have less-invasive surgeries that allow them to recover quickly and return to their normal activities sooner than after traditional “open” surgeries.

Laparoscopy is one minimally invasive technique employed by our skilled urologic surgeons. In these procedures, the surgeon makes several very small incisions instead of one large one, inserting tiny surgical instruments and a miniature video camera to view the surgical area. Our highly trained surgeons are leaders in using laparoscopic techniques. Some procedures can be performed using standard laparoscopy or robot-assisted techniques, depending on the disease and the preference of the surgeon.
Laparoscopic surgery procedures include:

• Laparoscopic nephrectomy
• Laparoscopic retroperitoneal lymph node dissection
• Laparoscopic adrenalectomy
