Minimally Invasive surgery

In addition to the traditional open surgeries performed at the South Shore Women’s and Children’s Hospital, we carry out specialized surgeries using non- invasive or minimally invasive methods.

Minimally invasive surgery refers to any surgical procedure that is performed through tiny incisions instead of a large opening. Minimally invasive surgery allows the surgeon to use techniques that limit the size and number of cuts or incisions that they need to make and so lessening wound healing time, associated pain, risk of infection and ultimately recovery time is usually quicker.There is also reduced chances for blood tranfusion.

Generally, it is typically considered safer than open surgery.

At South Shore, our expert surgeons are specialists in offering minimally invasive surgical techniques and treatments bringing significant advances to patient care.
