Denton Surgical Group Minimally Invasive Surgical Procedures

Less Pain, Faster Recovery

Denton Surgical Group physicians are expert in performing surgery using minimally invasive technology.  Minimally invasive procedures are also called laparoscopic surgery, pinhole surgery, bandaid surgery, and keyhole surgery.

Unlike conventional open surgery which involves large surgical incisions to allow the surgeon to see inside a patient's body to remove or repair organs, minimally invasive procedures use small incisions or "ports" to insert tiny video cameras and instruments into the body to perform the surgical procedure. Laparoscopic procedures can accomplish the same results as traditional open surgery but are less traumatic to patients.

Minimally invasive procedures generally require shorter hospital stays, have much smaller incisions, are more comfortable for the patient and reduce the recovery time required following surgery.
