Open surgery – It is traditional surgery in which the surgeon makes a large incision on your body to access the abnormality and treat it.
Endoscopy – Endoscopy can be done for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. In this procedure, a long and thin tube (called the endoscope) is inserted through the mouth or nose.
Laparoscopic surgery – Laparoscopic surgery is a minimal access treatment. In this procedure, the surgeon makes several small incisions to access the abnormalities and treats them with the use of a medical tool called a laparoscope.
