Laparoscopy
The laparoscopy is an instrument which looks like a miniature telescope with a fiber optic system which brings light into the abdomen. It is has the circumference of a fountain pen and twice the length. This instrument is placed in the vagina and carbon dioxide (CO2) is put into the abdomen through a special needle that is inserted just below the navel. This gas helps to separate the organs inside the abdominal cavity, making it easier your physician to see your reproductive organs during this procedure. The gas is removed at the end of the procedure.
The newest laparoscopy is a microlaparoscopy. This is a new diagnostic procedure which uses telescopes and instruments that are much smaller than normal.
This new procedure is said to revolutionize diagnostic laparoscopy. It's been compared to advances in electronics where computers are now a fraction of their original size, and similar advances in surgical instrumentation now offer new opportunities to diagnose and treat surgical diseases.
