Indicative interventions are:

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Laparoscopic appendectomy
Exploratory laparoscopy
Laparoscopic spot repair with mesh
Laparoscopic removal of intra-abdominal cysts and morphomas

Τα πλεονεκτήματα της λαπαροσκοπικής τεχνικής συγκρινόμενης με την κλασική ανοιχτή μέθοδο είναι πολλά :

• minimal surgical trauma, no blood loss
• quick discharge from hospital and fast recovery (hospital stay usually 24 hours and return to daily activities in 2-3 days)
• reduction of postoperative cardiorespiratory complications, reduction of the likelihood of adhesions within the abdomen
  δυνατότητα επισκόπησης των περισσοτέρων ενδοκοιλιακών – εσωτερικών οργάνων (λαπαροσκόπηση)
