title: Videolaseroscopy and videolaparoscopy.
abstract: Laparoscopic surgery is not a new idea, but it has only recently found widespread acceptance. The introduction of technological advances such as improved light sources, lasers and video capability has made laparoscopy a surgical technique that offers many advantages to the patient and the surgeon. Because videolaseroscopy must be performed using a completely different set of skills, the only limit to the expansion of this type of surgery is training enough surgeons to meet the growing demands of the public. We believe that videolaseroscopy will become a larger part of the surgical operations performed in the future as technology becomes available to improve upon the instruments and methods.
