FAQs

Explore the details about general and laparoscopic surgeries and everything you need to know about it.

Are surgeries mandatory?

No, they are not. Doctors will not recommend surgeries when there are safer, non-invasive alternative treatments available. However, some medical circumstances may require surgery because it is the most effective method to treat certain ailments.

Are surgeries risky?

Yes, all surgical procedures carry an inherent amount of risk, which certain medical conditions may amplify. However, most procedures are safe, thanks to the latest advancements in medical sciences. At Krishna Hospital, we have one of the finest operating rooms, equipped with ultra-modern facilities to deal with extreme surgical complications.

What is the post-surgical recovery process?

Once the surgery is complete, the patient will be kept under intensive care and observation for the time recommended by the surgeon. This period is determined by the type of surgery and the nature of the underlying condition. Minimally invasive surgeries heal quickly without causing much discomfort. However, major surgeries require a longer healing time.

What happens during my visit for surgery?

During your visit, your surgeon will examine your medical condition and its details. They will make surgical plans based on your diagnostic tests and scan reports. Next, a date is set, and your surgeon will explain the preparations to get ready for the surgery.

Is laparoscopy a major surgery?

A laparoscopy may be performed in a hospital or an outpatient surgical centre. The procedure requires anaesthesia. However, you will be able to go home on the same day, as most laparoscopies are performed as outpatient procedures.

What are the advantages of having a laparoscopy?

Surgeons may recommend laparoscopy as it has the following benefits:

Smaller incisions
Minimal post-operative discomfort
Shorter hospital stay

Quicker recovery
Smaller scars
Less loss of blood

How long does it take to recover from laparoscopic surgery?

The duration of recovery from laparoscopy is determined by the patient and the type of surgery. Patients will be on pain medication for at least a week after the surgery. They will have to refrain from heavy lifting, douching, sexual intercourse, baths, and strenuous exercises. Some patients may return to work in a couple of weeks, provided their job is not physically taxing.

How is laparoscopic surgery performed for GI-related disorders?

Many gastrointestinal surgical procedures are done with laparoscopic methods, where the surgeon makes tiny incisions on the abdomen to use certain instruments. The surgeon will use a camera to guide them through the entire process.

Does laparoscopy require general anaesthesia?

Yes, laparoscopic procedures require general anaesthesia. Although it is a minimally invasive procedure, it involves incisions on the patient's abdomen. The surgeon inserts the laparoscope and other surgical tools to perform the surgery. Anaesthesia is administered to make the procedure completely painless.

How many incisions are made in laparoscopic surgery?

Generally, surgeons make 1-4 incisions that are between 1 and 2 centimetres in length. These incisions are big enough for your surgeon to insert the surgical tools, although they may require another tool to perform a biopsy.
