Yes, surgery for colorectal cancer can be performed using a laparoscopic approach, also known as laparoscopic colectomy or minimally invasive surgery. Laparoscopic surgery involves making several small incisions in the abdomen through which specialized instruments and a laparoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera) are inserted to perform the procedure.
The benefits of laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer include:
-
Smaller Incisions

Faster Recovery
