Minimally invasive surgery is the surgery of the 21th century and the future, and it refers to interventions with minimal impact on the tegument, which are easily tolerated by the patient. This concept includes endoscopic surgery (performed by using the natural orifices, such urethra) and laparoscopic surgery (performed by making small 1-2 cm incisions which become almost invisible after complete healing).

The major benefits of this approach consist in the quick recovery, shorter hospitalisation, and reduced postoperative discomfort. Patients can recover their mobility early, and postoperative complications are reduced. Integration into society is significantly faster and more efficient after surgical procedures performed by applying the minimally invasive approach. The patient’s general condition becomes better in a much shorter time, postoperative pain is decreased, and the use of painkillers is reduced.

Also, the efficacy of these procedures is at least equal to that of traditional surgery. The cure rate of pathologies remains the same.

The operating unit of EndoPlus Clinic is equipped mainly with devices and instruments designed for minimally invasive surgery:
– equipment for 3D HD laparoscopy (Einstein – Aesculap system) used mainly in urological oncologic pathologies (partial or radical nephrectomy, nephroureterectomy with perimeatic cystectomy, radical cystectomy, radical prostatectomy, adrenalectomy), but also in malformative urological pathologies (hydronephrosis, reflux, etc.)
– Flexible equipment for LASER Holmium intrarenal surgery for kidney stones and urothelial tumours
– Plasma vaporisation for benign prostatic hyperplasia
– Endoscopic resections for bladder tumours
– Endoscopic interventions for urethral strictures
