Dr. Shiva Kumar’s expertise ensures that even complex cancers are managed with precision, using tools that reduce physical strain and improve outcomes.
Compared to conventional open surgery, laparoscopic cancer surgery offers numerous benefits:
Tiny cuts mean less trauma to your body, leading to a gentler and less painful recovery.
Because the incisions are so small, you’ll have fewer visible scars and reduced chances of complications like infections or hernias.
Most patients return to their normal activities within 2–3 weeks. This is especially helpful for those who need to resume work or family responsibilities soon after surgery.
With minimal disruption to surrounding tissues, there’s significantly less bleeding, often eliminating the need for transfusions.
