Have you been referred to our Laparoscopy clinic in Basingstoke?

Otherwise known as keyhole surgery, a Laparoscopy can be needed for a variety of health reasons. Performed under general anaesthetic, a Laparoscopy is an operation performed in the abdomen or pelvis using small incisions with the help of a camera.

This surgery allows the surgeon to inspect all of the organs of the tummy cavity in some detail along with the lining of the tummy cavity and the fat within the tummy cavity. It’s a wise surgery to have if you’ve been suffering from of several conditions such as appendicitis, hernia repair and bowel resection.

Depending on the type of procedure, you will normally have one small scar near the tummy button and a number of other 5mm-10mm scars over the tummy cavity depending on where the surgeon feels it necessary to place them.
