Minimal Invasive Surgery
"Key-hole surgery" and "laparoscopic surgery" are often used instead of Minimally Invasive Surgery. The operation is preformed through small incisions using specialized techniques, miniature cameras and high definition monitors. Mr Khan specialises in this modality of surgical treatment. Minimally invasive surgery is performed both on an inpatient (stay in the hospital) and outpatient (go home the same day) basis
For patients, minimally invasive surgery means less trauma to the body, less blood loss, smaller surgical scars and less need for pain medication. Patients leave the hospital sooner after minimally invasive surgery and return to normal activities sooner than with conventional open surgery
