What challenges are associated with minimally invasive surgery?
Minimally invasive surgery, such as laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgeries, offers numerous benefits, including quicker recovery times and reduced scarring. However, these techniques require specialized training and can be costly. Surgeons must be adept at using intricate instruments and navigating the limited visual field provided by the laparoscope or robotic system. Additionally, there are risks associated with anesthesia and potential for surgical complications, such as bleeding or infection.
