What is Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS)?
Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) involves advanced surgical techniques that use small incisions, specialized instruments, and imaging technologies to perform complex procedures. Unlike traditional open surgery, MIS is designed to reduce trauma to the body, ensuring quicker recovery and minimal scarring.
Key Features of MIS:
- Smaller incisions (often less than 1 cm)
- Use of laparoscopic.
- High-definition visualization for precise surgical intervention
MIS is widely used for gastrointestinal, liver, pancreatic, and other abdominal conditions, making it a preferred choice for many patients.
