What is minimally invasive surgery?

Instead of a large wound, minimally invasive surgery is performed through a few very small openings. Through them, a camera that magnifies the internal image and fine instruments are introduced to operate. This way the surgeon sees in great detail and works with precision, touching healthy tissue as little as possible.

It's used both to diagnose and to treat, and often allows the problem to be resolved while preserving your organs and your fertility.

Special focus

Endometriosis surgery

Endometriosis deserves expert surgery. Deep disease requires specific training that not every surgeon has, and treating it well can relieve pain and protect your fertility. That's why we give it a dedicated page, with everything you need to know.

Why choose it

Benefits for you

Compared with traditional open surgery, the minimally invasive approach usually offers:

Less trace

Very small incisions

Tiny cuts instead of a large wound, with minimal scarring.

Comfort

Less pain

By harming less tissue, discomfort after surgery is usually lower.

Time

Faster recovery

Most return sooner to their daily life and activities.

Stay

Less time in hospital

In many cases, discharge is the same day or the next.

Safety

Lower risk of bleeding and infection

Being less invasive, some complications decrease.

Care

Preserves your organs

When possible, the uterus, ovaries and your fertility are preserved.

Benefits vary by person and case. Not all situations are candidates for a minimally invasive approach: some require a different one, and your doctor will explain this clearly after the assessment.
