Patient Info If you have been told you need
gallbladder surgery, ask your doctor about
Single-Site da Vinci Surgery. This procedure is
performed through a single incision using
state-of-the-art precision instruments. Patients
who choose Single-Site da Vinci Surgery
experience a virtually scarless procedure since
surgery is performed through only one incision in
the navel (belly button), which dramatically
limits visible scarring.

Laparoscopic Surgery
Laparoscopy is commonly performed procedure to
Investigate and some key hole surgeries on
abdominal and pelvic organs. Laparoscopy is
direct visualization of the abdominal cavity and
intra-abdominal organs by using a laparoscopy.
The laparoscope is a long thin instrument with a
light source at its tip, to light up the inside
of the abdomen or pelvis. Fibreoptic fibres carry
images from a lens, also at the tip of the
instrument, to a video monitor, which the surgeon
and other theatre staff can view in real time.

Body Mass Index (BMI) is measure of body fat
based on height and weight that applies to both
adult men and women. BMI does not differentiate
between body fat and muscle mass. Therefore, body
builders and people who have a lot of muscle bulk
will have a high BMI but are not overweight or
obese. BMI is usually a good indicator of body
fat for most people. Although it doesnt directly
measure body fat, it closely correlates to direct
measures of body fat, such as underwater
weighing. BMI is also an inexpensive and
easy-to-perform method that can help determine if
a persons current weight could potentially lead
to health problems.
