How Do These Procedures Compare to Traditional Surgery?
Less invasive procedures generally offer several advantages over traditional open surgery:
- Incision Size: Traditional surgeries often require large incisions, while less invasive methods use small cuts. - Hospital Stay: Patients undergoing minimally invasive procedures usually have shorter hospital stays. - Recovery Time: Recovery is quicker with less invasive methods. - Pain Management: There is typically less postoperative pain and reduced need for pain medication.
