Need an accurate diagnosis for unexplained abdominal conditions? Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda, an experienced Surgical Gastroenterologist, GI Surgeon, and Advanced Laparoscopic Surgeon in Hyderabad, performs Diagnostic Laparoscopy using minimally invasive techniques to evaluate abdominal organs, identify hidden diseases, and guide the most effective treatment plan.

ABOUT THE PROCEDURE

What is Diagnostic Laparoscopy Surgery?

Diagnostic Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to examine the abdominal and pelvic organs when imaging tests such as ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI cannot provide a definitive diagnosis. Through a few small incisions, a laparoscope with a high-definition camera is inserted into the abdomen, allowing the surgeon to directly visualize internal organs. Tissue biopsies can also be taken during the procedure if needed. Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda performs diagnostic laparoscopy with precision to accurately diagnose complex gastrointestinal conditions while minimizing discomfort and promoting faster recovery.

HOW IS THE PROCEDURE PERFORMED?

How is Diagnostic Laparoscopy Surgery Performed?

Diagnostic laparoscopy is performed under general anesthesia using small abdominal incisions, a laparoscope, and specialized instruments to examine internal organs accurately.

Preoperative Assessment

Before the procedure, Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda performs a detailed clinical evaluation, including blood investigations, imaging studies, and anesthetic fitness assessment. Previous medical records and radiological findings are carefully reviewed to determine the areas requiring evaluation.

General Anesthesia

Diagnostic laparoscopy is performed under general anesthesia to ensure complete patient comfort throughout the procedure. The anesthesia team continuously monitors vital signs to maintain patient safety.

Laparoscopic Examination

A small incision is made near the navel, and carbon dioxide gas is gently introduced into the abdominal cavity to create adequate working space. A high-definition laparoscope is inserted to examine the liver, stomach, intestines, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, peritoneum, and other abdominal organs. Additional small ports may be placed if further examination is required.

Biopsy

If any abnormal tissue, tumor, inflammation, or suspicious lesion is identified, a biopsy is carefully obtained using specialized laparoscopic instruments. The tissue sample is then sent for laboratory analysis to establish an accurate diagnosis and guide further treatment.

Postoperative Care

After the procedure, patients are observed until they recover from anesthesia. Pain is usually minimal and managed with medications. Most patients can walk within a few hours and are discharged on the same day or the following day, depending on their overall condition.

RECOVERY

Recovery After Diagnostic Laparoscopy Surgery

Recovery is usually quick, with patients gradually resuming normal activities, following dietary advice, managing mild discomfort, and attending recommended follow-up appointments.
