Abstract

Diagnostic laparoscopy is the basic procedure in laparoscopic surgery that has wide utility in practice, thus avoiding morbidity associated with open surgery. Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive technique wherein a fibre optic instrument is inserted through the abdominal wall to view the organs in abdomen/pelvis and permit the diagnosis and necessary surgical procedure. Nowadays, almost all general surgical procedures can be performed using minimal invasive techniques. Laparoscopy can be performed both for diagnostic as well as for therapeutic purposes. JMS 2018: 21 (2):70-71
