Laparoscopy was first used with cancer patients in 1973. In these first cases, the procedure was used to observe and biopsy the liver. Laparoscopy plays a role in the diagnosis, staging, and treatment
Keyhole surgery (laparoscopy/ MIS-minimally invasive surgery) uses a small incision instead of a large incision, to allow the insertion of the medical instruments, lights and a camera into the area of operation. This reduces the damage to surrounding tissue, posssibly gives a quicker recovery, may be less painful and cause less scarring. The area of operation may be inflated for ease of manouevrability, with carbon dioxide gas.
A disadvantage to laparoscopy is that some growths may be too large or extensive to remove with laparoscopic instruments, necessitating a laparotomy.
