Laparoscopic Procedure at Medical Drugs Glossary

What is Laparoscopic Procedure? Surgical technique involving specialized devices that enter the body through small incisions, or ports, and enable surgery to be performed via the video display of the surgical site. Laparoscopic procedures generally reduce the recovery time required following surgery relative to standard laparotomy (open-body) procedures. FloGel is well suited for laparoscopic procedures, since it can be applied through laparoscopic ports as a liquid before turning into a gel when it reaches the tissue.
