About Pediatric Laparoscopy
Paediatric laparoscopy uses keyhole techniques for children, with smaller scars, less pain and quicker recovery. It is used for appendix removal, hernias, undescended testes and other conditions.
Specialised child-sized instruments and experienced surgeons are important for safety.
