Let's use gallbladder removal surgery as an example. With laparoscopic surgery, there are typically 4 small incisions made to the abdomen. These incisions open up a space for what is called a trocar to be placed. A trocar is like a bridge from the outside of the body to the inside of the body. The first trocar placed is in the umbilicus (belly button) and is typically used to insert a camera. Before the camera goes in, the abdomen is inflated with CO2 gas this allows for a better visual field. Once the camera is in, the other 3 incisions are made - these are to hold instruments to manipulate the tissue inside of the body. One is generally to pull the gallbladder up toward the liver so the surgeon can visualize the entire gallbladder and begin to remove it from the liver with the other instruments. Once the gallbladder is safely released from the liver, a bag is placed through one of the trocars to 'catch' the gallbladder, the bag is cinched around the gallbladder and removed out of one of the ports. The surgeons check for bleeding at the surgical site and inside the abdomen, particularly where the trocars were placed. Once everything checks out, the gas is turned off, the instruments and trocars are removed and the incisions are closed. Laparoscopic surgery is considered minimally invasive and the recovery time is faster than with open surgery. With the conventional open gallbladder surgery, there is one larger incision. Once open, the stomach contents are manually moved aside, then the liver is moved out of the way so the surgeons can see the gallbladder. Instruments called retractors are used to stretch the abdomen open. The gallbladder is removed from the liver, the operative site is checked for any bleeding. The retractors are removed, and the incision is closed. Another alternative is what is referred to as an open small incision gallbladder removal, which has about the same recovery time as laparoscopic surgery. Lastly, there is an alternative to laparoscopic surgery (ex: to remove a liver mass) which includes laparoscopy mixed with hand assisted surgery.
Gastric bypass surgery can be laparoscopic or conventional surgery. It can be a full bypass, stapling, or banding. There are many options but all have risks and benefits. Talk to your doctor.
the laparoscopic surgery is wonderful.
RFA can be used to treat tumors that are too small or too inaccessible for removal by conventional open surgery.
Surgical removal of the gallbladder (cholecystectomy ) is the most common conventional treatment for recurrent attacks. Laparoscopic surgery, the technique most widely used, is a safe, effective procedure

Carbon dioxide is used in laparoscopic surgery and peritoneal cavity is filled up to 15 mmHg pressure normally.
Laparoscopic gall bladder surgery requires a surgeon and general anesthesia. However a person should be able to receive said surgery in any major hospital.
Laparoscopic gastric bypass is a common type of bariatric surgery typically performed on patients with a BMI of 40 or greater. Because laparoscopic surgery is less invasive, it is recommended over traditional surgery whenever possible. Laparoscopic surgery is performed through small incisions, drastically reducing a patient's recovery time. In gastric bypass surgery, the size of the stomach is reduced, resulting in less food consumption. This in turn reduces calorie intake, resulting in weight loss. Before considering this surgery, it's important to do a lot of research and talk to your physician to decide if this surgery is right for you.
Laparoscopic surgery is very safe procedure because only 3–4 small cuts are made during this surgery and it involves very less complications to the patient. It minimizes the time spent by the patient in the hospital or in bed rest.
