Key Takeaways
- Laparoscopic ('keyhole') surgery does the same operation as open surgery through 3–4 tiny cuts — with far less pain and a fraction of the recovery time.
- Dhaara's laparoscopic service covers gallbladder, hernia, appendix, gynaecological and advanced GI procedures.
- Most patients walk the same evening and return to work within 1–2 weeks.
- Led by Dr. Srinivas Bojanapu (DrNB Surgical Gastroenterology) and Dr. Prathima Srinivas (gynae-laparoscopy).
Procedures We Perform Keyhole
- Gallbladder: cholecystectomy for stones/polyps — day-care in most cases
- Hernias: inguinal, umbilical, incisional — mesh repair with fast return to work
- Appendix: appendicectomy — smaller scars, less wound infection than open
- Gynaecology: hysterectomy, cystectomy, myomectomy, diagnostic laparoscopy
- Advanced GI: fundoplication for reflux, colectomy, splenectomy, diagnostic laparoscopy for acute abdomen
Why Recovery is Genuinely Different
Small cuts mean divided muscles heal in days, not months: pain-killer needs drop sharply, chest and wound complications fall, and hospital stays shrink from a week to 24–48 hours. The trade is technical difficulty — keyhole surgery demands specific training and equipment. Dhaara runs HD laparoscopy towers with modern energy devices, and our surgeons do these procedures as their core practice, not occasionally.
Your Laparoscopic Surgery Pathway at Dhaara
Keyhole Surgery, Faster Recovery
Laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery performs operations through a few small incisions instead of one large cut. A high-definition camera and long, fine instruments do the work inside, while the surgeon watches on a monitor. For patients this means less pain, tiny scars, shorter hospital stays and a quicker return to work compared with open surgery.
At Dhaara Speciality Hospital, Yelahanka, our surgical team led by Dr. Srinivas Bojanapu — Surgical Gastroenterologist and HPB Surgeon — performs the full range of laparoscopic procedures across gastrointestinal and gynaecological care.
