Minimal Access Surgery (MAS)

Minimal Access Surgery deals with surgical procedures that are performed with bare minimum invasion. These surgeries are usually done using a laparoscope and by creating one or multiple small incisions about 0.5 to 1.5 cm wide.

The Department of Minimal Access Surgery at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, Indore comprises specialist surgeons, anaesthetists, and trained operation theatre staff. Surgeries performed in the department include gallstone removal, gall bladder removal, appendicectomy, hernia repair, and surgeries of the intestine and spleen. The Department of Minimal Access Surgery has a dedicated Operation Theatre with access to high-end surgical material that ensures a higher success rate.

Minimal Access Surgery has several advantages over traditional open surgery like faster recovery, shorter hospital stays, less pain, fewer complications, and reduced chances of infection.
