Minimally Invasive Surgery is an advanced surgical technique which allows major procedures to be done through small keyhole incisions on the abdominal wall. This results in small scars and a shorter recovery. In contrast, traditional surgery is performed through a large incision on the abdominal wall. This large incision permits visualization of and access to internal organs, however it results in a large scar and longer recovery.

Scarless Single Incision Surgery

Just a few years ago, it was not conceivable that major abdominal surgery could be performed laparoscopically without a single visible incisional scar. Fortunately due to the efforts of the leading physicians and engineers in the field of minimally invasive surgery, in 2008 a multi-port device and Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS™) were invented.
