The laparoscopic surgical procedure is done on an outpatient basis at one of our NYC practices. A general anesthetic will be provided to minimize any discomfort you may experience during the treatment. In some cases, we may opt for a local anesthetic instead depending on your specific condition. During laparoscopic surgery, we will make an incision below your belly button, and then inserts a small tube called a cannula. The cannula will inflate your abdomen with carbon dioxide gas, allowing us to see your abdominal organs more clearly. If necessary, we may make 1-4 small incisions to allow us to insert the tools necessary to perform a biopsy.
