Minimally invasive surgery is performed using a camera and hand instruments inserted through 0.5-1 cm incisions made in the abdominal wall. It is a technique used in many fields, from hernia surgeries to heart surgeries, and follows the same basic principles as open surgery. The main difference between the two techniques is that minimally invasive surgery is performed through small incisions with the help of a camera and hand instruments. Today, the most common minimally invasive procedure is laparoscopic cholecystectomy, also known as laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder removal. However, many general surgical operations, including inguinal hernia, appendicitis, reflux, and hiatal hernia surgeries, are performed laparoscopically. Additionally, laparoscopic surgery is used in cases requiring the removal of the spleen or adrenal glands, as well as in colon cancer surgeries. Furthermore, minimally invasive techniques can be used in brain surgery, gynecological surgery, orthopedic surgery, urological surgery, and cardiovascular surgery.
