There's always a risk of mechanic trauma to internal organs, but it's very rare, as laparoscopic intervention is done by highly trained experts.

Any type of surgery if handled improperly has a pretty good chance of harming one organ or another. The lucky thing is that surgeons who do this procedure are very well trained and therefore the chances that something will go wrong are minute.

Anytime a surgeon places a laproscopic inside a patient, there can be damange to the intestine.  This is recognized about 75% of the time and corrected.  When this happens, there usually is no significant consequence.  However, if the injury to the intestine is not immediately identified, the patient will become quite sick after surgery.

Now, that being said, when done properly, laparoscopic surgery is almost always better than "open" surgery in terms or patient recovery.  The true incidence of bowel injury is not known, but is likely much less than 1% and probably less than 0.1%.

There is also a similar risk of unintended bowel injury during open surgery.

I hope this answers your question.

In my day job I write about Blood Pressure Treatment and treat those who suffer from blood pressure problems. Low blood pressure is a particular interest and I'm often asked about how to lower cholesterol levels. A healthy heart is becoming a huge focus for many of us nowadays. Improving your blood pressure control and thus the health of your heart and circulation system is really important. My most recent online "adventure" is to start a facility for people to ask me my opinion and to provide high quality health information by answering medical questions online.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also have a special interest in the problem of feeling Tired All the Time and in those who suffer from chronic fatigue or lethargy. This seems to tie in also to skin care issues or skin treatment problems and suggestions. Tiredness and fatigue can lead to major problems for many individuals in modern society and the way that this can affect all areas of general health can be quite invasive in terms of daily life and coping skills.

My work with footballers and athletes leads to a focus on Painful Shoulder conditions and on the problems associated with frozen shoulder or whiplash injuryRotator cuff injury causes problems for many of my patients.

When not working I daydream about my next amazing european vacation trip  My favorite European cities include Paris and Barcelona and my next blog project will be to write about the best way to spend a night in Paris and how to find an apartment in Barcelona. I just love European travel in all its forms.
