Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgery which helps to view the inside of any part of the body. It is a surgical procedure with the help of several flexible thin instruments and a video camera attached to it. Mostly, it is the first step taken before a major operation.

The laparoscopic surgery procedure includes making small incisions and then plastic tubes known as ports are placed through the cuts.
